An unusual case of intertrigo in an adult caused by purely cutaneous Langerhans cell histiocytosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report a case of persistent intertrigo in an adult, eventually diagnosed as cutaneous Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). It is known that LCH has a predilection for intertriginous areas, however purely cutaneous disease as in our case, is uncommon ...
