Verruciform xanthomas occur on mucocutaneous surfaces and are characterized by hyperkeratosis, acanthosis, and the occurrence of "foam cells" stuffed with lipid surrounding capillaries in the dermis between rete pegs. Ultrastructural examination of a lesion on the penis revealed the presence of melanocytes with many lipid droplets in the basal layer of the epidermis. We suggest that they are a major source of the lipid of the "foam cells." However, this study provides no information as to the nature or lineage of the "foam cells."
疣状黄色瘤发生于黏膜皮肤表面，其特征为角化过度、棘层肥厚，以及在表皮突之间的真皮内围绕毛细血管出现充满脂质的“泡沫细胞”。对阴茎上一处损害进行的超微结构检查显示，在表皮基底层存在有许多脂滴的黑素细胞。我们认为它们是“泡沫细胞”脂质的主要来源。然而，本研究未提供有关“泡沫细胞”的性质或谱系的信息。
