Clinical experience in an infant with Langerhans cell histiocytosis
Introduction: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) or Histiocytosis X is a benign proliferative disease affecting dendritic cells. It presents a wide clinical spectrum, from isolated eosinophilic bone granuloma to multisystem involvement with multiple ...

Common Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Ph+ Following Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis in a Multi-Malformed Child with INV (9) (p12;q13) (mat):Case Report [PDF]
The occurrence of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) and another malignancy in the same patient is infrequent but has been recognized. The genetic changes that could be responsible for LCH and/or concomitant leukemia development are obscure. To the best

Localized Langerhans cell histiocytosis masquerading as Brodie s abscess in a 2-year-old child: a case report [PDF]
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), formerly known as histiocytosis X, refers to a spectrum of diseases characterized by idiopathic proliferation of histiocytes that produce either focal (localized LCH) or systemic manifestations (Hand–Schüller ...

Erdheim-Chester disease detected with 99MTC MDP bone SPECT/CT
Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare non-Langerhans’ cell histiocytosis. Mild but permanent juxta-articular bone pain in mainly knees and ankles is the most frequent associated symptom.

Somatic mutations in solid tumors: a spectrum at the service of diagnostic armamentarium or an indecipherable puzzle? The morphological eyes looking for BRAF and somatic molecular detections on cyto-histological samples [PDF]
This review article deals with the analysis and the detection of the morphological features associated with somatic mutations, mostly BRAF(V600E) mutation, on both cytological and histological samples of carcinomas.

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

CD207+ dendritic cells (DCs) drive emphysema by promoting CD8⁺ T cell cytotoxicity via Birbeck granule‐dependent MHC‐I antigen presentation. This DC subset is expanded by cigarette smoke‐induced oxidative stress, which triggers granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) release from airway epithelium.

Laryngeal involvement with fatal outcome in progressive nodular histiocytosis: A rare case report
Progressive nodular histiocytosis (PNH) represents a very rare type of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. It is characterized by progressive appearance of papules and nodules without spontaneous resolution.
