Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a complex disease entity comprised of three distinct clinical syndromes that demonstrate indistinguishable histology. These syndromes are: eosinophilic granuloma, which is predominantly osseous or pulmonary; Hand-Schûller-Christian's disease, which involves multiple organ systems and, most typically, the skull ...

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2009
Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a rare disease. Depending on which organs are involved, the disease may prove rapidly fatal, develop a chronic reactivating but therapy-responsive pattern or resolve spontaneously. Understanding of the pathology of the disease is progressing rapidly, and while clinical trials of standard chemotherapy agents continue, it

Langerhans cells (LCs) function as the most peripheral outpost of the immune system. Although first identified in the skin, these cells probably originate in the bone marrow and migrate actively between the epidermis and the lymph nodes. They appear to play a critical role in immune surveillance and the development of contact allergy. The importance of

Langerhans' cell histiocytosis
The Lancet, 2005A 38-year-old woman complained of persistent chest pain. A plain radiograph showed an irregularity on the sternum, and bone-scan showed uptake only in that area. Thoracic-abdominal CT showed an osteolytic lesion of the sternum (figure) without any other signs of neoplasia.

Langerhans’ Cell Histiocytosis
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1996Langerhans' Cell Histiocytosis, formerly known as Histiocytosis X, and its related syndromes (i.e., eosinophilic granuloma, Hand-Schuller-Christian disease, and Letterer-Siwe disease) are briefly reviewed. The biology, clinical manifestations, and treatment options of the localized, single form and the disseminated, multisystem form are also discussed.

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 ...

The first major stride toward understanding LCH was taken when ultrastructural studies identified the proliferating cells as part of the Langerhans (dendritic) cell system. Another step forward was the definition of the morphologic, immunohistochemical, and clinical criteria needed for the diagnosis of LCH.

Langerhans cells (LC) are a subtype of dendritic cells, which reside in the epidermis. LCs are antigen-presenting cells that originate in bone marrow and enter the epidermis through blood vessels. LCs exhibit a variety of antigen receptors that are able to respond to a wide range of antigens.

SUMMARYLangerhans cell histiocytosis is a rare condition that can affect any organ of the body. Patients of all ages may present to the dermatologist and it is important to make the diagnosis as quickly as possible, because time from presentation to diagnosis is of prognostic importance in adults with the disease.

Differentiation of Langerhans cells in Langerhans cell histiocytosis
Blood, 2001Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) consists of lesions composed of cells with a dendritic Langerhans cell (LC) phenotype. The clinical course of LCH ranges from spontaneous resolution to a chronic and sometimes lethal disease. We studied 25 patients with various clinical forms of the disease.
