Case 2846  3.6.21  (S. Taibjee)  M 93 4x3 cm purple plaque, right lower leg 

I thought this was venous hypertension, but was iunaware of this entity.  Diffuse, rather evenly arranged band-like capillary proliferation in somewhat hyaline, sclerotic dermis, without lobular pattern.  Endothelial cells prominent, occasionally hobnail.  Overlying hyperkeratosis.

Case 2912  3.9.21 (R. Carr)  M 75 lower leg ? BCC 

Superficial, multifocal BCC.  Background changes of lichenification, reactive microvenular proliferation and loss of elastic fibres in dermis (shown by EVG).  RC thinks this is a reaction pattern to varied insults such as pressure over bony prominences, after lichenoid infiltration and here in response to superficial BCC.
