Examples of arteritis and periarteritis score, as well as other lesions: a Periarteritis in mesenteric arteries, H&E. Score 1 (<10% arteries affected); b Periarteritis in mesenteric arteries, H&E. Score 3 (>25% arteries affected); c Case of periarteritis within bronchial artery; note that bronchial artery (arrow) is adjacent to principal bronchi. H&E stain; d Moderate mononuclear lymphohistiocytic myocarditis. H&E stain; e Mild multifocal lymphoplasmacytic interstitial nephritis. H&E stain; f Periarteritis in mesenteric arteries, PCV-3 ISH. This case received a score of 1; g Periarteritis in mesenteric arteries, PCV-3 ISH. This case received a score of 3; h Bronchial artery with periarteritis where positive labelling is seen within bronchial artery muscular wall and inflammatory infiltrates, PCV-3 ISH; i Strong PCV-3 positive labelling (score 3) of myocardial fibres in case of moderate mononuclear myocarditis, PCV-3 ISH; j Positive viral genome labelling (score 1) within tubular epithelial cells of the kidney, PCV-3 ISH
