Histopathology of an EMP infiltrating the tonsil (patient 3). (A-B) An interfollicular expansion of CD20– (original magnification [om] ×25) (A) and IgA+ plasma cells (om ×25) (B) is seen. CD20 highlights B-cell follicles, which are in part attenuated. (C-D) Interfollicular areas contain sheets of mature plasma cells (hematoxylin and eosin; C, om ×100; D, om ×400). (E-F) The plasma cells are monotypic and express κ (om ×400) (E) but remain negative for λ light chain (om ×400) (F).
