LEFT LABIUM MINUS, PUNCH BIOPSY:
- CLASSIC VULVAR INTRAEPITHELIAL NEOPLASIA (cVIN) II (MODERATE DYSPLASIA).
- LICHEN SCLEROSUS.
COMMENT:
Immunostains:
POSITIVE: p16 (strong, diffuse - lower 2/3 of the epithelium).
NEGATIVE: HMB-45, S-100, p53 (weak, patchy, superficial squamous cells).
PROLIFERATION (Ki-67): increased, marks superficial squamous cells (compatible with
                        high-grade lesion).
</pre>
=====Micro=====
The sections show a punch biopsy of skin. Compact hyperkeratosis and hypergranulosis is
present. The epidermis is edematous, has moderately atypical cells in the lower two thirds
of the epithelium and mitotic activity. Several suprabasal mitoses are present. Apoptotic
keratinocytes are present. Granular yellow pigment (hemosiderin?) is present in the
epidermis.  The epidermis is not significantly thickened.  The lesional cells extend
to the lateral edges of the tissue.
