Lung: There is alveolar type II pneumocyte hyperplasia and pneumocytes are often multinucleated with up to eight nuclei (viral syncytia) and frequently contain 4um eosinophilic intracytoplasmic and intranuclear inclusion bodies; these syncytial cells are often hypereosinophilic with karryorhectic nuclei (necrosis) and have been sloughed into alveolar lumina.
