Squamous Cell Carcinoma with Prominent Eosinophils.

Eosinophils are often encountered in the stroma and peritumoral microenvironment of squamous cell carcinomas. Because eosinophils are readily identified on routine hematoxylin and eosin stained sections, researchers have explored multiple ways in which identifying the extent of eosinophil infiltration on routine biopsy and excisional specimens might provide diagnostic and prognostic information. We review the literature on this evolving topic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
