Saggital section of kidney from a German shepherd dog with disseminated aspergillosis. There are granulomata within the medulla, and fungal material within the renal pelvis. Renal involvement in canine dissemianted aspergillosis is common, and the demonstration of fungal hyphae within urine sediment is a useful screening test.

Allergic Bronchocentric Granulomatosis. low power. Sections show muscle, lung with acute inflammation and evidence of organisation with early fibrosis. The bronchial wall can be seen with chronic inflammation and many eosinophils.There is a thickened basement membrane. No definite granulomata are seen.

CXR prior to bronchoscopy had shown an opacity just superior to the right hilum, which was felt to represent possibly a fungal plug. Patient was therefore bronchoscoped.
