There are clusters of cells with clear cytoplasm and thickened cell border near the vessels, together with scattered eccrine ducts in the reticular dermis. Origin of these cells could be of either eccrine, pericytic or histiocytic. Special staining can help the differentiation.

  Case181: Clear cell change due to glycogen accumulation
 

グリコ−ゲンの沈着に伴う泡沫化で、決して、稀ではなく、時々見られます。PAS染色をしてみるとよいかも・・・病的意義はありません。

  Case 181: Mycobacterial infection
  見たことのない組織像です。転移性腫瘍にしては異型が目立ちません。泡沫細胞というのでしょうか?明るい胞体を持った組織球様の細胞が血管周囲に浸潤しています。特異的な炎症像なのかどうかも分かりません。上記と考えました。

I intepreted the pale cells around the blood vessels as foam cells, i.e. xanthoma cells.

  You can examine the details of pale cells by new image.

  CASE181:Eruptive xanthoma
  My diagnosis is eruptive xanthoma.
I can see foam cells around the vessels.
I think that the foam cell is lipid-laden histiocyte.

  Ccase181 review
  If the clear cells are xanthoma cells, the simplest answer is xanthelasma. Several different forms of xanthomata must be differentiated. Eruptive xanthoma associated with hypertriglyceridemia is unlikely because of the lack of extracellular lipid deposits as usually found in this lesion. Normolipemic plane xanthoma frequently associated with paraproteinemia is also unlikely because of the lack of xanthogranulomatous features including Touton cells. Palmar xanthoma with high IDL is difficult to identify because the location is not described. Tuberous xanthoma with high LDL is unlikely because the lesion is not tuberous and not associated with cholesterol crystals. However, abortive lesions of the diseases as described might show similar histology to the given images. Then, blood chemistry including lipids and paraproteins must be investigated for the differential diagnosis.
