Erythema chronicum migrans

Two biopsates of an erythema chronicum migrans, taken simultaneously. The left biopsate originates at an inflamed seam and shows signs that are typical of borreliosis (peri-vascular and inter-stitial infiltrate with plasma-cell involvement). The right biopsate originates at the pale-coloured centre and shows no pathological changes of diagnostic value.
