Figure 3.
Foam cell obliterative arteriopathy is very characteristic of chronic liver
allograft rejection, but it is usually detected only after the allograft has
failed and been resected. Here foam cells are seen expanding the intima,
focally traversing the media and rimming the adventitia of a medium-sized
muscular artery in the liver hilum of a failed liver allograft.
