A 7-year-old boy with a history of fetal alcohol syndrome is brought by his mother to the emergency room for malaise and lethargy. His mother reports that the family was on vacation in a cabin in the mountains for the past 10 days. Five days ago, the child developed a fever with a max temperature of 102.6°F (39.2°F). She also reports that he was given multiple medications to try to bring down his fever. Although his fever resolved two days ago, the child has become increasingly lethargic. He started having non-bilious, non-bloody emesis one day prior to presentation. His current temperature is 100°F (37.8°C), blood pressure is 95/55 mmHg, pulse is 110/min, and respirations are 22/min. On exam, the child is lethargic and minimally reactive. Mild hepatomegaly is noted. A biopsy of this patient’s liver would likely reveal which of the following?
