Pleomorphic spindle cell dermal neoplasm with dot-like keratin reactivity: keratin-positive AFX or carcinoma?

abstract：:Traditionally, the pigmented purpuric eruptions (PPE) have been subdivided into four histologic categories, based upon variations in histologic pattern and clinical morphologies. In recent years, it has become apparent that the lesions behave similarly, and this family of eruptions has become grouped under the term PP...
