FIGURE 8.

Four microscopic images of stained tissue samples display clusters of cells with prominent dark purple nuclei and varying granularity, surrounded by lighter-stained cellular structures; scale bars indicate 15 micrometers for reference.

Bone marrow aspirate findings demonstrating excessive lipid-laden macrophages. Numerous enlarged macrophages with abundant, finely vacuolated cytoplasm are present, indicating intracellular lipid accumulation. These features are consistent with lipid-laden macrophages exhibiting prominent cytoplasmic vacuolization suggestive of intracellular lipid accumulation. All images were obtained from one of the twins, as a bone marrow procedure could not be performed in the other due to clinical deterioration.
