Case 1: Transbronchial biopsy shows lung parenchyma with intra-alveolar fibrin aggregates or “balls” (arrows) with mild mononuclear interstitial infiltrate (A: Haematoxylin-eosin stain [H/E], 100× magnification), without evidence of cellular rejection given the lack of perivascular or bronchial mucosal infiltrates (B: H/E, 200× magnification). Case 2: Surgical lung biopsy shows intraalveolar fibrin aggregates (arrows) and mild fibroblastic proliferation with minimal mononuclear inflammatory cell infiltrate (C: H/E 100× magnification; D: H/E 200× magnification). Case 3: Autopsy specimen shows intra-alveolar fibrin aggregates (arrows) (E: H/E 100× magnification; F: H/E 200× magnification).
