Histopathological findings. A-D. Sections of the dura and galea show increasing inflammatory change (A, H&E, Ă—40) composed of mainly lymphoplasma cells in a storiform fibrous background with occasional eosinophils (B, H&E, Ă—100; C, H&E, Ă—200). Lymphoid follicles with germinal center formation are also seen in a section of galeal tissues (D, H&E, Ă—100). E&F. IgG4 (+) plasma cells account for more than 50% of IgG (+) cells with a mean more than 30 in 3 higher power fields (ABC immunohistochemical stain, E, Ă—100; F, Ă—200).
