Cross-sections (a, c) and a longitudinal section (b). a Infiltration of eosinophils into the extravascular space in the epineurium is observed. Eosinophils are seen in the lumen of a vessel (arrow). An endoneurium, where the nerve fibers are located, is indicated by an asterisk. b Many eosinophils are packed inside an endoneurial vessel. c An eosinophil indicated by an asterisk is located in the extravascular space of the endoneurium.
