From: Unusual presentation of alveolar echinococcosis as prostatic and paraprostatic cysts in a dog
Photomicrograph of fine needle aspirates of the paraprostatic cyst. Modified wright stain: Fragments of acidophilic, acellular hyaline membranes (star), folded on itself and containing numerous pale, greenish calcareous corpuscles (arrow). A few greenisch, pale hooklets, consistent with degenerate protoscoleces are present on the right margin (arrowhead). Some erythrocytes (blood contamination) and few neutrophils are visible in the background.
