Examples of distal lung disease in “atypical” severe asthma and differential diagnoses from video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery procured tissue. a) Small airway with massive lymphocytic bronchiolitis (arrowheads) often found in severe asthma with an autoimmune background (100× magnification). b) Small interstitial poorly defined granulomas (arrows) with epitheloid histiocytes/giant cells (arrowheads) in asthmatic granulomatosis, note the absence of vasculitis (100× magnification). c) Granulomatous inflammation in eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, note the presence of prominent tissue eosinophilia, vasculitis (arrow) and necrotising granulomatous inflammation (arrowheads) (200× magnification). d) Aspiration granuloma, note a well-formed, non-necrotising granuloma entirely replaces an airway lumen (arrow), with foreign-body giant cell reaction to vegetable material (arrowhead) (100× magnification).
