Lung, 1985
Pulmonary histiocytosis X is a granulomatous disorder of the lung of unknown cause. Patients with this disease often complain of cough, dyspnea on exertion, and, occasionally, chest pain from a pneumothorax or bone involvement. However, it is not unusual for patients to be asymptomatic with only a diffuse interstitial infiltrate on their chest ...

Pediatric Radiology, 1993
Congenital histiocytosis X involving multiple organs is a rare disease that causes rapid mortality in intrauterine and neonatal life. The diagnosis of histiocytosis X (Letterer-Siwe disease) should be considered in a neonate with vesiculated crusting skin lesions.

Histiocytosis-X of the hypothalamus
The British Journal of Radiology, 1975Hypothalamic masses associated with histiocytosis-X may be mistaken for neoplasms. As a result radiation therapy will often be administered rather than chemotherapy, which appears to be the treatment of choice for histiocytosis-X of the hypothalamus. Particularly in young people, the possibility of granulomatous disease should be entertained and biopsy

British Journal of Dermatology, 1970
SUMMARY.— The problems of treatment of histiocytosis X with x-ray, cortisone, methotrexate, and vinblastine are briefly reviewed. In all 16 patients with focal histiocytosis X of bone, there was a good response to surgery or roentgen therapy. In 2, the lesions healed after surgery for biopsy alone.

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1979
A case of histiocytosis X of the nose in a 5-year-old Nigerian child has been described. This localization of the lesion with secondary involvement of the submandibular cervical nodes is quite unusual and no similar case has been so far reported in the literature. The difficulties encountered in the diagnosis, the aetiological factors and treatment are

Human Pathology, 1983
The histologic and clinical features of pulmonary histiocytosis X are discussed. The majority of patients are in the third and fourth decades of life. They present with nonspecific respiratory complaints and bilateral reticulonodular infiltrates that can be seen on chest radiographs.

Prostaglandins in Histiocytosis-X: PG Synthesis by Histiocytosis-X Cells
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1981Histiocytosis-X cells were obtained at autopsy from the lungs and lymph nodes of a patient who died of the disseminated infantile form of this disease (Letterer-Siwe disease). The ability of these cells to synthesize and release prostaglandins was investigated in culture, by prelabeling the cell lipids with [14C] arachidonic acid and measuring the ...
