Figure 2: (a) On a vertical section in the low-power view, distorted hair follicles with perifollicular infiltration were seen around the infundibulum and isthmus, and marked dermal fibrosis was also noted (H and E, ×40). (b) On a transverse section at higher magnification, band-like lymphocytic infiltrates were seen around the hair follicles (H and E, ×200). (c) Direct immunofluorescence of IgM produced a negative lupus band test result
