Erdheim Chester disease presenting as bilateral breast dimpling and discoloration
: Erdheim Chester disease is a rare disease characterized by abnormal proliferation of histiocytes. The most commonly affected site is the long bones, while involvement of the breasts is very rare. In patients with breast involvement, a unilateral breast

Bilateral Renal Colic as an Initial Presentation of Erdheim-Chester Disease
Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare non-Langerhans cells histiocytosis characterized by multiorgan involvement, with renal-ECD documented in over one-third of patients. Renal disease is generally asymptomatic, rarely causing hydronephrosis and kidney

Targeted proteomics reveal histiocytosis‐associated neurodegeneration signatures
Abstract Neurodegeneration (ND) is a severe complication of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), yet its underlying biology and reliable biomarkers remain poorly defined. The aim of this study was to (1) gain insight into neuroimmunological mechanisms governing ND and (2) assess the clinical value of established and novel biomarkers for ND‐LCH.

Histiocytosis development and clinical variation through the lens of genomics
Abstract Histiocytic neoplasms are rare haematologic diseases characterised by clonal expansions of cells with a monocyte, macrophage or dendritic cell phenotype. Their clinical manifestations are diverse, ranging from indolent lesions to aggressive systemic disease.

Genetic analysis of primary lung interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas
Abstract Interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas (IDCSs) are rare tumors that commonly arise in the hematopoietic system and rarely outside. The genetic drivers of IDCS carcinogenesis are unknown; therefore, therapeutic options are limited. We investigated somatic gene mutations and copy‐number alterations (CNAs) in nine IDCSs arising in the lung by ...
