BUCCAL MUCOSA, RIGHT, BIOPSY:
- SQUAMOUS MUCOSA WITH A COMPACT KERATIN LAYER AND PARAKERATOSIS.
- NEGATIVE FOR DYSPLASIA AND NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY.

====Micro====
The sections show a squamous mucosa with a layer of compact keratin, parakeratosis, and
focal hypergranulosis. There is no inflammation at the interface. Epidermal intercellular
bridges are easily seen. There is no significant nuclear atypia. Mitoses are not evident.
