Hyperkeratosis, increased epidermal pigmentation, melanin granules in the dermis, extravasated RBCs, homogenous esinophilc small globular deposits are seen in the papillary dermis. Thinking of amyloidosis, the pigment granules would favour a primary cutaneous type. Mostly there is also a dermal clefting, could be bullous amyloidosis. However, it is usually encountered in the systemic forms but as much as I know, the systemic forms does not containg pigment deposition or melanophages.
