Example text

There is hyperkeratosis and subtle evidence of formation of a granular layer characterized by focal coarse keratohyaline granules in the upper part of the epithelium. Some cases may show parakeratosis unlike typical lichen planus. The epithelium has interface damage but usually dose not show the sawtooth pattern fibrinogen along the dermoepidermal junction. There is usually some complement deposition, and there is variable IgM deposition. If necrotic keratinocytes are ­present in the dermis, they can non-specifically take up immunoglobulins, especially IgM, but IgG or IgA staining may also be present.

In this lower power image, the lesion resembles lichen planus but there is conspicuous parakeratosis. (b). 3 Key microscopic features: lichenoid drug eruption • Compact hyperkeratosis and parakeratosis • Lichenoid infiltrate of lymphocytes and eosinophils • Interface change Fixed drug eruptions tend to be localized (see below) and show less epidermal change. While still having the interface change and lichenoid infiltrate, they lack hyperkeratosis or granular layer thickening. 4. 4 Practical tips: lichenoid drug eruption • Parakeratosis is a frequent feature of lichenoid drug eruptions.
