Metastatic melanoma with balloon/histiocytoid cytomorphology after treatment with immunotherapy: A histologic mimic and diagnostic pitfall.

abstract：:During the past decade, a group of cells located in the dermis and possessing a dendritic morphology have emerged from obscurity and become recognized as important members of the "dermal immune system". This group of cells is characterized by a considerable degree of immunophenotypic and functional heterogeneity. In t...
