What are the Histological Features of EBV Infection?
Histologically, EBV infection can present with various features, depending on the stage of infection and the tissue involved. In acute infectious mononucleosis, affected tissues often show lymphocytosis with atypical lymphocytes, which are large with abundant cytoplasm and irregular nuclei. In lymphoproliferative disorders, one may observe a proliferation of atypical lymphoid cells.
