Introduction

At medium power, both the white and grey matter of the hippocampus appears hypercellular due to mild diffuse gliosis.

Many of the hippocampal neuronal bodies appear eosinophilic rather than having the normal cytoplasmic basophilia.

Cerebral blood vessels are more prominent than normal due to reactive swelling of the endothelial cells and their nuclei.
