Figure 3.
This is an example of severe bile duct damage, a change that was present
in most of the
portal triads in the failed allograft shown in
Figure 1. In this example, there are
inflammatory
cells inside the basement membrane, reactive changes with nuclear
pleomorphism and lumenal disruption. In the
Banff
schema, this lesion would receive a score of "3"
for bile duct damage.
