From: Oral lichenoid lesions: distinguishing the benign from the deadly
Histologic features of a case of epithelial dysplasia with lichenoid features. On low power magnification the biopsy of this case showed a ‘lichenoid’ appearance with a band-like inflammatory cell infiltrate (blue arrow) (a, H&E stain, original magnification × 100). On higher magnification of the highlighted black arrow in a, hyperchromatic nuclei and significant cellular atypia are evident, but basal cell degeneration is not present (b, H&E stain, original magnification × 250).
