(H &E X100) b) partial damage of the villi (black arrows) with few cells shedded inside the crypts (red arrows). (H & E X 100) c) ulceration (black arrows) and focal intravillous hemorrhage (red arrow). (H& E X 200). d) partrial damage of villi (blue arrow) and increased mitotic activity (black arrows). (H & E X 200). e) numerous goblet cells (arrow heads) and focal intravillous hemorrhage (arrow).
