Pseudomicrobes have been described, and detailed criteria must be carefully applied, if incorrect diagnoses are to be avoided. We recently noted numerous free\u2010lying, uniform, eosinophilic, straight or slightly curved bacilliform structures in such a specimen. These were seen on Diff\u2010Quik\u00ae\u2010stained material, but were extremely pale on Papanicolaou\u2010stained slides. Comparison with the cilia of contaminating bronchial cells showed these pseudomicrobes to have similar length, diameter, and tinctorial properties. Electron microscopy of the sedimented cell pellet showed isolated, detached single cilia (DSC) far removed from any bronchial cells. Twenty BAL's from 13 males and seven females (median age = 48.5) undergoing infection surveillance were then retrospectively reviewed. DSC were present in 16 specimens (80%), but were rare in three of these. Although present in cases with prominent bronchial cell contamination (n=6 cases), DSC were also encountered when ciliated cells were rare (n=13), or absent (n=1). Familiarity with these distinctive structures should make it unlikely that they will be mistaken for infectious organisms. \u00a9 1995 Wiley\u2010Liss, Inc.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/dc.2840130309","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,2,22]],"date-time":"2007-02-22T05:19:34Z","timestamp":1172121574000},"page":"225-228","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Detached single cilia: Another potential pseudomicrobe seen in bronchoalveolar lavage specimens"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Michael W.","family":"Stanley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Robert E.","family":"Mrak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ricardo H.","family":"Bardales","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,7,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_2","volume-title":"Bronchoalveolar lavage: cytology and clinical applications","author":"Stanley MW","year":"1991"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/dc.2840090609"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_2","first-page":"18","article-title":"Toxoplasma gondii pneumonia in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome","volume":"88","author":"Oksenhendler E","year":"1990","journal-title":"Am J Med"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/clinids\/14.4.863"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/dc.2840110112"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/dc.2840060209"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_8_2","first-page":"100","article-title":"Red blood cell \u201cghosts\u201d as look\u2010alikes for infectious organisms: a report of two cases","volume":"37","author":"Wasdahl DA","year":"1993","journal-title":"Acta Cytol"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0046-8177(88)80012-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcp\/69.5.475"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_11_2","first-page":"107","volume-title":"Diagnostic cytology and its histopathologic basis","author":"Koss LG"}],"container-title":["Diagnostic Cytopathology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Fdc.2840130309","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/dc.2840130309","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,26]],"date-time":"2023-10-26T05:18:22Z","timestamp":1698297502000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/dc.2840130309"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1995,10]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1995,10]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/dc.2840130309"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/dc.2840130309","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["8755-1039","1097-0339"],"issn-type":[{"value":"8755-1039","type":"print"},{"value":"1097-0339","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1995,10]]}}}
