Caption:
This photomicrograph revealed some of the histopathologic changes found in this section of hamster liver tissue. It included phagocytic macrophages, which had been infected with the parasitic organism, Leishmania donovani. The yellow arrowheads indicate those amastigotes that were contained intracellularly, within the macrophages, while the red arrowheads, pointed to a number of extracellular amastigotes, which had been liberated from their intracellular confinement.
