Figure 2: Epithelial hyperplasia of the conjunctiva is noted here. Multiple round sporangia were seen in various stages of degeneration. The degenerating sporangia were surrounded by inflammatory cells admixed with a few dilated blood vessels (black arrows) (H and E, ×10) (a). Stage I or the early trophic stage in the life cycle of rhinosporidosis: A large single centrally situated nucleus is surrounded by a finely granular cytoplasm. The three surrounding layers can be distinctly identified (black arrow): The outer chitinous layer, the middle cellulose-like layer and the thin mucoid layer. (Gomori's Methanamine silver stain, 40×) (b)
