Table 6.
Modified Scoring Criteria proposed by Gurung et al. [33].
Score | Histologic Feature |
---|---|
Typical | Both features of: 1. Prominent plasma cells - Plasma cells account for more than 20% of inflammatory cells), OR - Plasma cell clusters (defined as ≥5 (plasma cells) in lobule or portal tracts 2. Kupffer cell hyaline globules |
Compatible | Prominent plasma cells (as defined for ‘typical’ cases) in the absence of Kupffer cell hyaline globules on PAS-D |
Atypical | Neither of the two ‘typical’ features or features suggestive of another disease process (e.g., biliary disease or steatohepatitis). |
