A 71-year-old man living in El Salvador developed anemia, indirect bilirubinemia and intermittent fever for the past several months. Ultrasound of the abdomen revealed mild splenomegaly. Both thick and thin blood smears for malaria failed to show malaria species.

Effective staining of peripheral blood smears which enhances the contrast of intracellular components and biomarkers is essential for the accurate characterization, diagnosis, and monitoring of various diseases such as malaria.

Washington, D.C., like many major cities in the U.S., has experienced a large influx of illegal immigrants in the past decade. Hundreds of thousands of Hispanics have entered the United States, many of them fleeing from the political violence in Guatemala and El Salvador. The Washington metropolitan area may have as many as 80,000 refugees from El Salvador alone.

One hundred and forty adult rice field frogs,Hoplobatrachus rugulosus(Wiegmann, 1834), were collected in Srakaew province, Thailand. For blood parasite examination, thin blood smears were made and routinely stained with Giemsa. The results showed that 70% of the frogs (98/140) were infected with 5 species of blood parasites, including aTrypanosoma rotatorium-like organism,Trypanosoma chattoni, Hepatozoonsp. a,Hepatozoonsp. b, andLankesterella minima. Pathological examination of the liver, lung, spleen, and kidney of the frogs that were apparently infected with one of these blood parasites were collected and processed by routine histology and subsequently stained with haematoxylin and eosin. Histopathological findings associated with theTrypanosoma rotatorium-like organism andTrypanosoma chattoni-infected frogs showed no pathological lesions.Hepatozoonsp. a andHepatozoonsp. b-infected frogs developed inflammatory lesions predominantly in the liver, demonstrating granuloma-like lesions withHepatozoonsp. meronts at the centre. Tissue sections ofLankesterella minima-infected frogs also showed lesions. Liver and spleen showed inflammatory lesions with an accumulation of melanomacrophage centres (MMCs) surrounding the meronts and merozoites. It is suggested thatHepatozoonsp. a,Hepatozoonsp. b, andLankesterella minima-infections are capable of producing inflammatory lesions in the visceral organs of rice field frogs, and the severity of lesions is tentatively related to levels of parasitemia.
