The sections show a polypoid fragment of squamous mucosa with a thin layer of parakeratosis. The subepithelial tissue consists of abundant fibrous tissue and has dilated small blood vessels. | |||
No significant inflammation is present. No nuclear atypia is apparent. No necrosis is present. No proliferative activity is apparent. | |||
