[Ultrastructural pathology of the liver in abdominal typhoid].
Light and electron microscopies were applied to examine liver punctates from 10 patients with typhoid fever. Both in the full swing of the disease and in clinical recovery (convalescence), dystrophic and necrobiotic changes along with focal cell death were found to occur in the hepatocytes, endothelial and Kupffer cells covering the sinuses. The protein-synthesizing system and mitochondria were demonstrated to be primarily destroyed. The microbes of typhoid fever were located in the hepatocytes, endothelial and Kupffer cells.
