case_images: (a) Two large (10 to 30 mum) fungal organisms at intermediate magnification. (b) Multiple large (10 to 30 mum) fungal organisms, some with peripheral daughter buds (2 to 4 mum) at high magnification. Background intermediate and superficial squamous epithelial cells provide valuable size references (cervicovaginal cytology, ThinPrep, Papanicolaou stain 400x (a), 600x (b)).

case_images: They performed Gomori methenamine silver (GMS) and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) stains (Figures 1-3). They also retrieved 2 previous Pap test slides from this patient from their archival files.
case_images: (a) Multiple globular and large (10 to 30 mum) fungal organisms. (b) Single large rounded fungal element with numerous asymmetrically distributed peripheral daughter buds (2 to 4 mum), morphology confirmed as Cokeromyces recurvatus. In close proximity are superficial and intermediate squamous epithelial cells (cervicovaginal cytology, ThinPrep, Papanicolaou stain 1000x (a, b)).

case_images: (a) Single large C. recurvatus fungal microorganism with multiple peripheral daughter buds. (b) Another organism with 2 peripheral daughter buds with background squamous epithelial cells (cervicovaginal cytology, ThinPrep, Gomori methenamine silver stain 1000x (a), periodic acid-Schiff stain 1000x (b)).
