Disseminated coccidioidomycosis with confluent spherules of Coccidioides immitus. Each spherule has a thick refractile wall and contains numerous tiny endospores. Spherules enlarge and eventually burst, so many sizes are present typically, some of which may be ruptured and empty. Hematoxylin and eosin stain, original magnification, ×200.
