Gynecologic Oncology, 1983
(1) Histiocytosis-X can manifest itself in virtually every organ, but in gynecology it is an absolute curiosity. (2) Differential diagnosis must exclude specific and nonspecific ulcerations and granulations such as syphilis, tuberculosis, Boeck's disease, and also neoplastic processes like lymphomas, sarcomas, carcinomas, and malignant diseases of the ...

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.

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

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 ...

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

Abstract The dentist may play an important role in establishing the diagnosis of histiocytosis X, since the disease often manifests itself initially in the oral cavity. Some of the more important clinical findings that should arouse the clinician's suspicion include (1) marked periodontal disease or cysts of unknown etiology which do not respond to ...

Histiocytosis X of the Thyroid Gland
Tumori Journal, 1996Histiocytosis X rarely involves the thyroid gland and occurs as one of the unusual manifestations of systemic diseases. Diagnosis is based on the identification of the Langerhans' cells in an appropriate background. We report a case of histiocytosis X confined to the thyroid gland that represents the primary manifestation of the disease.
