=====Inflamed===== | |||
The sections show a fragment of skin with epithelium on three sides. The epithelium matures | |||
and is acanthotic. Minimal parakeratosis is present. The core of the lesion consists of | |||
fibrous tissue with a mild lymphocyte-predominant dermal infiltrate. Rare siderophages are | |||
present. | |||
There is mild basal nuclear enlargement. No significant nuclear atypia is apparent. The | |||
dermal-epidermal interface is well-demarcated. Rare basal mitotic activity is identified. | |||
