Intermediate-dose cytarabine is an effective therapy for adults with non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis [PDF]
Background Non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, including Erdheim–Chester disease (ECD), Rosai–Dorfman disease (RDD), indeterminate cell histiocytosis (ICH), and unclassified histiocytosis, is a rare disorder lacking a standard treatment strategy.

Intra-arterial Melphalan for Neurologic Non-Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis. [PDF]
Histiocytic neoplasms are rare hematologic disorders characterized by pathologic infiltration of activated histiocytes in affected tissues. The treatment of histiocytic neoplasms, including Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) and non-LCH, has advanced in recent years owing to targeted kinase inhibitors (BRAF and MEK) as patients with somatic mutations ...

A Rare Case of Erdheim-Chester Disease (Non-Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis) with Concurrent Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis: A Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenge [PDF]
Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocyte disorder most commonly characterized by multifocal osteosclerotic lesions of the long bones demonstrating sheets of foamy histiocyte infiltrates on biopsy with or without histiocytic ...

High prevalence of myeloid neoplasms in adults with non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. [PDF]
Key Points Some 10.1% of adults with non–Langerhans cell histiocytosis have a concomitant myeloid neoplasm with each often harboring distinct mutations. The presence of distinct kinase mutations in histiocytosis and myeloid neoplasms resulted in discordant responses to targeted therapy.
