Figure 2 A-D, Biopsy from a PET-positive area of the right lung: a foreign body reaction is shown on the left and patchy chronic organizing pneumonia on the right. Top, low-power magnifications; bottom, high-power magnifications. In addition to the initially observed focal nonspecific slight lymphocytic infiltration (A) and sparse organizing fibrosis (B), a few multinucleated giant cells (C) of foreign body type were observed. They were noted to have phagocytized a small amount of nonbirefringent material (D).
