title: A new histopathologic feature of necrobiosis lipoidica diabeticorum: lymphoid nodules.
abstract: We have found a previously undescribed histopathologic feature of necrobiosis lipoidica diabeticorum among 310 biopsied cases: lymphoid nodules. This feature does not correlate with unique clinical lesions or forms of the disease. The lymphoid nodules are similar in appearance to those in other chronic dermal inflammations.
