Figure 2. Histological profile of the lesion. (A) Proximal ileal loop showing the histological feature of ischemia: the incarcerated loop showed subacute/chronic non-specific inflammation, resulting in a slightly thickening of subserosa, while the submucosa is markedly edematous (hematoxylin & eosin; 10×). Mesenteric fibrous nodule in the distal ileal loop. (B) The fibrous nodule is composed of a proliferation of spindle-shaped cells set in a collagenized stroma hematoxylin & eosin; 40×).
