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
