Figure S1: Histopathological images of the skin lesion (A–C). (A) Low-power view shows marked epidermal hyperplasia with irregular elongation of the rete ridges and dense inflammatory cell infiltration in the dermis. (B, C) Higher magnification demonstrates dense mixed inflammatory infiltrates composed predominantly of neutrophils forming microabscesses. Granulomatous inflammation, consisting of lymphocytes, histiocytes, plasma cells, and scattered eosinophils, is observed surrounding the abscess area. No obvious microorganisms are identified on routine H&E staining (H&E staining; A, ×10; B, ×40; C, ×100).
