An unusual case of cutaneous and hypothalamic histiocytosis X (HX) is reported. The hypothalamic involvement occurred as a tumor that mimicked a chiasm glioma on computed tomography angioscanning. Magnetic resonance imaging after gadolinium injection localized the tumor within the third ventricle floor.

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 ...
