The sections show skin with mild patchy chronic inflammation, consisting predominantly of
lymphocytes, at the dermal-epidermal junction. Eosinophils are not readily apparent.
The epidermis matures to the surface; however, it is focally thinned and focally flattened.

dermis shows no apparent fibrosis. No significant nuclear atypia is identified.
