Low power: blue dots in a sea of pink; histiocytic lesion with CD68 and S100 co-expression - Rosai-Dorfman disease. Though this one seems neutrophil rich, usual RDD would be more lymphoplasmacytic... Exclude infectious etiologies with special stains/culture?

the The blue-pink contrasted areas, as well pointed out by Shawn and Igor, are in keeping with a RDD diagnosis.
