The clinicopathological characteristics and differential diagnosis of histiocytosis
The histiocytosis is divided into Langerhans' cell histiocytosis (histiocytosis X) and non-Langerhans' cell histiocytosis (NLCH). The former mainly occurs in lymphatic hematopoietic tissue and often involves central nervous system (CNS).
