“…These nonspecific cases, as well as cases with a more defined pattern of injury, may include "supportive" findings seen in numerous cases in our study and others, which may help suggest the diagnosis of hepatic secondary syphilis but do not indicate a particular pattern of injury. These include prominent Kupffer cells (described in many studies in various patterns, 17,24,25,28,30,31,33,34,43,48,51,57 including 1 case with prominent sinusoidal histiocytes 39 ), poorly formed non-necrotizing granulomata 27,39,42,46,50,56,58 (which may rarely be the predominant finding 46 ), vessel wall inflammation, [25][26][27][28]39,51 sinusoidal inflammation, 9,28,29,39 and hepatic necrosis. 15,16,24,25,28,30,37,43,45,[49][50][51]54,55,57 Erythrophagocytosis is rarely mentioned.…”
