Jeong, Park, Lee, and Cho: Two Cases of Tick Bite Showing Localized Fat Herniation Response

Abstract

The pathology related to a tick bite reaction is well described. Formation of a cavity below the mouthparts of the tick and mixed dense cellular dermal infiltration are general histopathologic findings of a tick bite. In addition, granuloma formation, vasculitic response, and panniculitis were reported. We present two cases of tick bite showing a new histopathologic finding, a localized fat herniation response.
