Histological examination of omental and peritoneal biopsies disclosed the presence of noncaseating, nonnecrotic, sarcoid type granulomas containing multinucleated giant cells (Figures 1 and 2).

Histological examination of omental and peritoneal biopsies disclosed the presence of noncaseating, nonnecrotic, sarcoid type granulomas containing multinucleated giant cells (Figures 1 and 2). Moreover, the left ovary contained, upon sections, a whitish area consisting of cytopenic fibrous connective tissue (Figure 2) containing a single multinucleated giant cell (Figure 3), thus corresponding to a focus of fibrosed granuloma.
The single, Langhans-type multinucleated giant cell within the fibrotic focus of the left ovary (Hematoxylin and Eosin, x20).
