This article deals with viruses. The more general topic of infective things is dealt with in microorganisms. Many viruses afflict humans. Only a few of them can be diagnosed histologically.
Viral inclusions - types
Cowdry types:[1]
- Cowdry type A inclusion:[2]
- Round eosinophilic material surrounded by a clear halo.
- Cowdry type B inclusion:[3]
- Neuropathology thingy. (???)

Viruses
Herpes simplex virus
- In the context of gynecologic cytopathology see: Gynecologic_cytopathology#Herpes_simplex_virus.
- Abbreviated HSV.
General
Several subtypes:
- Canker sores - usually HSV-1.
- Genital herpes - usually HSV-2.
Histology/cytology
Features:[4]
- Clear "ground glass" nuclei.
- Rim of peripheral chromatin.
- Nuclear inclusions.
- Multinucleation with nuclear molding, i.e. multiple nuclei that touch over a large surface area.
Mnemonic - 3 Ms: Margination, Multinucleation, Molding.

IHC
- HSV-1 +ve (cytoplasmic and strong nuclear).
- HSV-2 +ve.
Images:
Cytomegalovirus
- Abbreviated CMV.
- For pneumonia caused by CMV - see Cytomegalovirus pneumonia.
- For colitis caused by CMV - see Cytomegalovirus colitis.
General
- The name comes from the microscopic appearance.
- One of the TORCH infections.
- May cause fetal hydrops and intracerebral hemorrhage.[7]
Microscopic
Features:
- Very large nucleus (as the name implies) with clearing.
- Classically described as owl's eye-like.
- Granular cytoplasmic inclusions (red on H&E sections).
Notes:
- Classically in endothelial cells.
- In the context of esophageal ulcers, it is therefore useful to biopsy the base of the ulcer - if this is suspected.
Images
CMV placentitis. (WC)
CMV encephalitis. (WC)
www:
- CMV - owl's eye-like (asm.org).
- CMV - case 1 - several images (upmc.edu).
- CMV - case 2 - several images (upmc.edu).
IHC
- IHC for CMV is available - highlights granular cytoplasmic inclusions; increases sensitivity.
Human papillomavirus
- Abbreviated HPV.
Main article: Human papillomavirus
Adenovirus
General
- Common in kids - usually a mild respiratory infection with fever and pharyngitis.
- Can cause post-infectious bronchiolitis obliterans.[8]
- May be seen in the context of (adenovirus) appendicitis.
Microscopic
Features:
- "Smudge" cells[9] - black/blue blob ~ 10-15 micrometers. (???)
Notes:
Images:
- Adenovirus (medscape.com).[10]
- Smudge cell (medpedia.com).
- Necrosis in germinal centre - low mag. (flickr.com).
- Viral inclusions - high mag. (flickr.com).
- IHC for adenovirus (flickr.com)
- Adenovirus encephalitis - several images (upmc.edu).
Parvovirus
- AKA Parvovirus B19.
General
- Most significant in pregnant women.
- Parvovirus attacks the nucleated RBCs of the fetus - causes an aplastic anemia.
- May cause collapsing glomerulopathy.[11]
Trivia:
Microscopic
Features:
- Glassy (red) nuclear inclusions.[14]
- Nuclear enlargement.
Images
www:
- Parvovirus (fujita-hu.ac.jp).[15]
- Parvovirus - placenta - (scielo.br).[16]
- Parvovirus - several images (fujita-hu.ac.jp).
Epstein-Barr virus
Main article: Epstein-Barr virus
Polyomavirus
Main article: Polyomavirus
Human herpesvirus-8
Main article: Human herpesvirus-8
West Nile virus
- Abbreviated WNV.
General
- Uncommon pathologen.
Clinical:
- Fever.
- Muscle weakness.
Microscopic
Features:[17]
- Perivascular clusters in grey and white matter:
- Mononuclear infiltrates (lymphocytes, plasma cells).
- Microglial nodules (macrophage clusters).
Measles virus
General
- Causes Measles.
- Should not be confused with Rubella (AKA German measles).
- Uncommon due to widespread MMR vaccine.
- However increasing in the last years most likely due to insufficient vaccination.
- May develop weeks to years after infection.
- Illness may be complicated by subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) - a chronic neurodegenerative condition.[18]
Microscopic
Features:
- +/-Intranuclear Cowdry type A inclusions.
- Glassy (pink) nucleus.
- Lymphocytes and macrophages (microglial cells).
- May be mild in in measles inclusion body encephalitis.
- Multinucleated cells.
- Microglial nodules.
- Demyelination.
- Gliosis.
Notes:
- Measles inclusions are intranuclear. RSV inclusions are intracytoplasmic.[citation needed]
Images
Rabies virus
General
- Causes rabies.
Virus affects:[19]
- Cerebral cortex.
- Hippocamus pyramidal cells.
- Purkinje cells.
Microscopic
Features:
- Negri bodies:
- Dense-appearing eosinophilic cytoplasmic bodies with a pale halo.
