A case of multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma in a 14-year-old boy showing two different clinical and histopathological findings.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) by cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas has been shown to correlate with advanced disease and risk of metastasis. Lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3, or CD223) is an inhibitory receptor that interacts with the PD-L1 axis, which has been shown to be a marker of i...
