Photomicrograph shows many clumps composed of epithelial cells under the skin, the clumps are lobulated and the marginal cells are distributed in a palisade shape, with obvious keratinization in the center, but lacking a granular layer (A, HEx100). In the outer cells, there are obvious cytological atypia and nuclear pleomorphism (B, HEx400).
