Slides with cytoid bodies were further reviewed to assess the number, intensity and location of the cytoid bodies and for other specific findings. These data were compared with both clinical records in the medical charts and pathologic findings from concurrent skin biopsies.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Of 1080 DIF examinations performed during the study period, 117 (10.8%) had cytoid bodies. These specimens were from patients with 28 different cutaneous disorders, the most common of which were various forms of lupus erythematosus (29\/117, 24.8%) and erythema multiforme (22\/117, 18.8%).
