Hi I am reading the Microscope description of a immunofluoresccence histologic examination from current punch biopsy. This was my second biospy taken 12/10/08
Can anyone tell what these findings mean.
IgG - Positive staining in a colloid body pattern at papillary dermis
IgM - Positive staining in a colloid body pattern at papillary dermis
IgA - Negative
C3 - Positive staining in a colloid body pattern at papillary dermis
C5/9 Complex - Positive staining in a colloid body pattern at papillary dermis
Fibrinogen - Negative
Conclusion Pathologist writes,
These immunopathological features are essentially Non-specific and may be seen in a variety of non-specific inflammatory dermatosis.
Thank-you for any help. Mechelle
