Marburg virus liver pathology

 

This photomicrograph revealed the cytoarchitectural histopathologic changes detected in a liver sample from a Marburg patient (case #1) who was treated in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1975. As the disease progresses, symptoms of Marburg disease can become increasingly severe and may include liver failure, jaundice, inflammation of the pancreas, severe weight loss, delirium, shock, massive hemorrhaging, and multi-organ dysfunction.
