LESION, VULVA, BIOPSY: | |||
- SQUAMOUS MUCOSA WITHOUT A CORNIFIED ZONE, WITH MARKED CHRONIC INFLAMMATION | |||
WITH PROMINENT PLASMA CELLS, SEE COMMENT. | |||
- NEGATIVE FOR DYSPLASIA AND NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY. | |||
COMMENT: | |||
A p16 immunostain is negative. Ki-67 positive cells are basal. No microorganisms are | |||
apparent with a PASF stain. | |||
A CD138 immunostain demonstrates clusters of plasma cells. The loss of the cornified zone | |||
and prominent plasma cells is consistent with plasma cell vulvitis (Zoon vulvitis). | |||
Clinical correlation is suggested. | |||
