CD163<sup>+</sup> Foamy Macrophages Are Associated with the Morphogenesis of Oral Verruciform Xanthoma through Angiogenesis by VEGF Expression: An Immunohistochemical Study

CD163<sup>+</sup> Foamy Macrophages Are Associated with the Morphogenesis of Oral Verruciform Xanthoma through Angiogenesis by VEGF Expression: An Immunohistochemical Study

Oral verruciform xanthoma (OVX) is an uncommon benign lesion that is characterized histologically by the accumulation of several foamy macrophages in the lamina propria papillae. The pathogenesis of OVX has not been completely elucidated, although the significance of macrophage polarization (M1, tum...
