(B) moderate vascular congestion and dilation of hepatic vessels (red arrow) with focal aggregation of mononuclear cells formation granulomatous like lesion (yellow arrow). (C) moderate periductal mononuclear cells aggregation (red arrow) with slight presence of edematous substance in adjacent hepatic parenchyma (yellow arrow). (D) various form of nuclear necrosis (red arrow) with number apoptotic hepatocyte (yellow arrow) with periductal mononuclear cells infiltration (blue arrow). (E) moderate nuclear pyknosis of hepatocyte (red arrow) with slight sinusoid congestion (yellow arrow) with evidence of councilman body (blue arrow).
