Dear MT( and all you HTs out there):

Thanks for the information lots of help:

I am now on the quest for a procedure for Elastosis Perforans Serpiginosum.

My pathologist has asked for the Orcein variation on the EVG(Elastin Van Gieson) or VVG as some of you know it. I have to get the Orcein so that is my first challenge, second is my protocol. There are a few out there and I would like to here from anyone who has a favorite for this method with this disease process.

Yours faithfully A. Keivn Williams
