THE EPIDEMIOLOGY OF LANGERHANS CELL HISTIOCYTOSIS
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1998Little progress has been made in finding the causes of LCH. Epidemiologic studies are difficult because of the rarity of this disease. Although several associations have been demonstrated in case-control studies, particularly that with thyroid disease, no causal relationships have been documented. Additional case-control studies may uncover the to-date

Oral manifestations of Langerhans cell histiocytosis: A case series
Special Care in Dentistry: managing special patients, settings, and situations, 2018AIM Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is an unusual proliferative disorder of bone marrow-derived histiocytes (Langerhans cells) that can produce focal or systemic manifestations. Oral manifestations of LCH can present as single or multiple lesions and

Langerhans cell histiocytosis in the adult
Medical and Pediatric Oncology, 1996A study of 47 well-documented patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) showed a slight female preponderance, with onset as late as the ninth decade. The skin was the commonest site of presentation, but pulmonary and bone involvement was frequent. Patients with single-site disease did best.

Langerhans' cells histiocytosis.
International journal of pediatric otorhinolaryngology, 1999Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder of unknown cause, characterized by the proliferation of histiocytic cells in various tissues and organs. The role of the otolaryngologist is important in the early and accurate evaluation, staging and diagnosis of LCH, because it may mimic more common diseases such as otitis externa and acute ...

Biology of Langerhans Cells and Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
2006Langerhans cells (LC) are epidermal dendritic cells (DC). They play an important role in the initiation of immune responses through antigen uptake, processing, and presentation to T cells. Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disease in which accumulation of cells with LC characteristics (LCH cells) occur. LCH lesions are further characterized
