Pathology Foci of "clear" hepatocyies and small hepatocyte3 with basophilic cytoplasm were seen in the liver after 26 and 52 weeks. Some of the most striking changes 3een in the liver after 52 week3 were: pronounced variation in the morphology of hepatooytes, extensive focal necrosis, focal proliferation of sinusoidal cells (iCunffer cells, endothelial ceils, reserve-celLsV), Large blood filled spaces often surrounded 07 reactive changes, "neo-Lvetio nodules', tumours v-rying from heoeto- -5 oev-Mooio?
