Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis [PDF]
Cancer Control, 2014 Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare histiocytic disorder of unknown etiopathogenesis. Its clinical presentation is variable and ranges from isolated skin or bone disease to a life-threatening multisystem condition. LCH can occur at any age but is more frequent in the pediatric population. A neoplastic origin of this disease has been suggested

Cutaneous Rosai‐Dorfman Disease With MAP2K1 Mutation Treated With Encorafenib and Binimetinib
JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rosai‐Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare histiocytic disorder with unifocal to multisystemic involvement. Activating mutations in the MAPK/ERK pathway can occur in up to 50% of RDD cases. We report a case of cutaneous RDD (C‐RDD) with facial and truncal lesions harboring an activating MAP2K1 (MEK1) mutation that showed a complete response to a ...
