Figure 2 Liver biopsy morphology for patient 2 before PEBD. (A) The portal tract is expanded by a combination of fibrosis and mononuclear inflammatory infiltrate. (B) Central vein wall sclerosis is accompanied by swollen hepatocytes showing giant cell transformation (arrow). (H&E; original magnification 260×.) (C) Electron microscopy shows bile canaliculus (BC) distended with coarse granular Byler bile. (Original magnification 8100×.) Gastroenterology , DOI: ( /S (03) )

Figure 3 Liver biopsy morphology of patient 2 at 14 months after PEBD. Note resolution of (A) portal tract inflammation, (B) central vein sclerosis, and cell swelling. (H&E; original magnification 260×.) (C) Electron microscopy shows bile canaliculus (BC) with completely normal appearance. (Original magnification 21,100×.) Gastroenterology , DOI: ( /S (03) )
