(a) Dermis shows numerous dilated thin-walled small-sized blood vessels in a myxoid stroma. The stromal cells are stellate shaped without nuclear atypia (hematoxylin and eosin, ×200). (b) Tumor cells in the stroma are immunoreactive for vimentin (vimentin, ×200). (c) Stromal cells are negative for desmin (Desmin, ×200). (d) Epidermis is acanthotic. There is a proliferation of variable sized thin-walled blood vessels in a myxoid stroma in the dermis (hematoxylin and eosin, ×100). (e) The stroma contains spindle-shaped cells admixed with inflammatory infiltrate comprising of eosinophils, neutrophils, mast cells and lymphocytes (hematoxylin and eosin, ×400)
