PRP could fit with clinical features. Unfortunately there isn't any convincing follicular plugs. 

However I see some checkerboard pattern of para/hyperkeratosis on the 3/4/5 fig.

When I saw the architecture I wanted to see in higher magnification searching for the hyphae but in the pictures they are not clear. I think there is something more appart from parakeratosis maybe tinea corporis in immunosupressed patient? I am not sure with these images though... Wonder what Richard was thinking

PRP. Normally I would not perform PAS stain in a case like this.
