Kidney: Candidasis
Lab 10, Case 1
![Page 2: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Multifocal punctate lesions visible on the serosal surface (arrows)
Don’t confuse these small yellow punctate lesions with the fat that is adherent to the renal capsule.
![Page 3: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Cut surface of the kidney
The multifocal punctate lesions are primarily in the cortex (arrows)
![Page 4: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Lymph node with three prominent areas of Candida colonies (arrows)
Even at this low magnification, the purple-staining yeast and pseudohyphae can be easily seen. This section was stained with PASH, which stains the cell walls of the fungi to make them more visible.
![Page 5: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
One of the Candida colonies from this lymph node
The chains of yeast which are termed “pseudohyphae” are apparent at this magnification.

Adrenal Gland: Histoplasmosis
Lab 10, Case 2
![Page 11: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Section of adrenal gland with several irregularly-outlined areas of necrosis
![Page 12: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Higher powered view of previous adrenal gland section
Shows more clearly the irregularly-shaped area of necrosis (arrows)
![Page 13: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Area of necrosis (arrows)
There is loss of cellular detail within this area. There are inflammatory cells present; however, it is difficult to differentiate the inflammatory cells and the naïve lymphocytes of the adrenal gland, which is a lymph node.
![Page 14: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Edge of the area of necrosis
There is a mild inflammatory infiltrate along the edge of the necrosis.
![Page 15: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Same section of tissue as previous slide
This section has been stained with methenamine silver, which causes the Histoplasma organisms to stain black (arrows)

Some of the organisms have been expelled during processing, but some cryptococcal organisms can be seen (arrows).
![Page 25: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Cryptococcal lesion
In this section, numerous cryptococcal organisms (5-10 mm in diameter) can be seen (arrows). Note that there is very little inflammatory reaction.
![Page 26: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Cryptococcal organisms within a lesion
Some of the organisms have a well-defined halo (arrows) due to the mucopolysaccharide coat which surrounds them.
![Page 27: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Cryptococcal organism
Shows more clearly the nucleus surrounded by the large extracellular capsule (arrows).
![Page 28: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Lung section stained with Alcian blue, which stains the acidic glycosaminoglycans making up the coat of the cryptococcal organisms.
![Page 29: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Lung section stained with Alcian blue
The mucopolysaccharide capsule shrinks during processing with this stain, thereby producing a shrunken central appearance with the formation of spikes around each organism.
![Page 30: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Lung tissue
Arrows: Areas of consolidation
![Page 35: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Lung section with pleura
The pleura (1) is thickened and contains inflammatory cells and fibrin. The areas of consolidation (2) are dense and filled with inflammatory cells.
![Page 36: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Lung section with pleura
The pleura (arrows) is thickened and contains inflammatory cells and fibrin. The alveoli are filled with inflammatory cells. Some of the alveolar septa are congested with red blood cells.
![Page 37: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Shows what appears to be inflammatory cells filling the alveoli
At this magnification, numerous round bodies (arrows) that look like inflammatory cell nuclei can be seen. However, on closer examination, some of these round bodies are surrounded by clear halos.
![Page 38: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
An alveolus filled with numerous round bodies up to 25 mm in diameter. Some of these double-contour bodies (1) have a dense center and a clear halo. These are the Blastomyces organisms. The typical B. dermatitides organism is smoothly-outlined with a central, densely basophilic cytoplasm surrounded by a clear halo. When stained with H & E, the organism is outlined by a relatively thick cell wall. There are also numerous inflammatory cells (2) in the avleolus- neutrophils, lymphocytes, and macrophages- which produce a pyogranulomatous inflammatory reaction.
![Page 39: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
An alveolus filled with Blastomyces organisms
This section is stained with PAS to stain the organisms.
![Page 40: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Blastomyces organism stained with PAS
Note the budding organism (arrow). Blastomyces has a characteristic presentation of budding which aids in the diagnosis of the fungus.
![Page 41: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

![Page 45: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
1: Wall of carotid artery
2: Thrombus
3: Within the wall of the artery and in the thrombus, there are multiple variably shaped clear areas. At this magnification and with this stain, it is impossible to determine what these clear spaces represent.
![Page 46: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Wall of the carotid artery
Note the ribbon-like clear structure with roughly parallel walls (non-septate hyphae) and right-angle branching (arrow). This is the Mucor organism.
![Page 47: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Wall of the artery and the thrombus
Within the thrombus there are multiple variably-shaped clear areas that represent longitudinal sections and cross sections of the Mucor organisms (arrows).
![Page 48: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Thrombus stained to outline the Mucor organisms (arrows)
Note again the ribbon-like morphology and the wide-angle branching.
![Page 49: Kidney: Candidasis](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56812fec550346895d9560fb/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
