A: Duodenum showing significant desquamation and loss of enterocytes (arrow) and infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells in the lamina propria (star). B. Jejunum showing vacuolation and separation of enterocytes from the lamina propria (arrow). The villi are severely damaged and distorted. A significant amount of inflammatory cells (star) are seen infiltrating the lamina propria. C. Ileum showing a complete loss of enterocytes from the lamina propria and a large number of lymphocytic infiltrates in the lamina propria. D. E & F. Duodenum, jejunum and ileum of a normal healthy control of same age is given for comparison. The duodenum, jejunum and ileum show normal tissue architecture with intact villi and enterocytes.
