Primary biliary cirrhosis with Metavir stage 4 fibrosis (extensive fibrosis/cirrhosis). The patient was AMA positive and ANA negative. A. Inflamed tracts and bridges are intensely inflamed, with odd appearing edges of hepatocytes (arrows), suggestive of a jig saw pattern [40x]. B. Trichrome shows thin fibrous bands bounding regenerative isles (arrows) [Trichrome, 100X]. C. Reticulin shows two cell thick cords and cords lacking orientation, documenting regeneration; black lines about single cells document piecemeal necrosis [100X]. D. Lymphocytes, plasma cells, and macrophages, show piecemeal necrosis, surrounding hepatocytes (cyan arrows), as well as spreading into the lobule (green arrows), with aggregates reflecting spotty necrosis (black arrow). [400X]. E. PAS with diastase highlights a proliferated bile ductule (arrows) with epithelial damage [400X]. F.  PAS with diastase shows an arteriole (green arrow) at great distance from an isolated bile ductule at the periphery of the triad (cyan arrow), consistent with loss of bile duct; neutrophils (black arrows) do not prove ascending cholangitis [400X].
