What does she see on the slide that would lead her to suspect the patient has bullous pemphigoid? O There is a split between the papillary and reticular layers of the dermis. The stratified squamous epithelium of the epidermis lacks defined layers and the cells of the stratum basale appear squamous in shape rather than cuboidal.
