Figure 2 Histopathology result. (A, B) Histopathologic result shows that was normal lymph node (LN; stain: hematoxylin and eosin; original magnification ×100). (C, D) CNs were seen in the lymphatic channels (arrow), and macrophages in the LN (stain: hematoxylin and eosin; original magnification ×100).
