Progressive Histiocytosis: Description of a Case of Slow-Course Non-Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Dermatology, 2002We describe the case of a 37-year-old male patient who in 1992 started developing a skin eruption characterized by dark red to red-yellow papulonodular lesions that showed no tendency to spontaneous resolution. Visceral organs were not involved and the lipid pattern was basically normal.

Fibroblastic rheumatism: fibromatosis rather than non‐Langerhans cell histiocytosis
Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 2010Background: Fibroblastic rheumatism is a unique fibro‐proliferative disease affecting the skin and joints. It is characterized by distinctive clinical and histological features related to benign spindle‐shaped cells proliferation. Pediatric reports are scarce in the literature.

Langerin is a type II transmembrane C-type lectin associated with the formation of Birbeck granules in Langerhans cells. Langerin is a highly selective marker for Langerhans cells and the lesional cells of Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Although Langerin protein expression in Langerhans cell histiocytosis has been previously documented, the specificity

A unique non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis with some features of generalized eruptive histiocytoma
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1994A symmetric eruption of hundreds of coalescent small red macules and a few slightly elevated papules sparing the flexures was observed in a 73-year-old man. Light microscopic examination showed loose aggregates of small and large histiocytic cells. Electron microscopy showed an absence of Langerhans cell granules and lipid droplets.

Non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis associated with lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's disease
Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 1999We report a 74-year-old man who presented with a rash on the trunk showing clinical and histological features of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Two years after presentation he developed weight loss, lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly; a diagnosis of lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's disease was made on lymph node biopsy.

Endolymphatic Non-Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis of the Larynx
Journal of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, 2010We report on an uncommon laryngeal non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. An 11-year-old boy presented with a 6 months history of progressive breath inhibition. Magnetic resonance imaging showed diffuse laryngeal and local lymph node swelling. Histology first resembled sarcoidosis, however, corticosteroids were ineffective.

GENERALIZED NON‐LANGERHANS CELL HISTIOCYTOSIS: FOUR CASES ILLUSTRATE A SPECTRUM OF DISEASE
International Journal of Dermatology, 1995Abstract Background. The proliferation of non‐Langerhans cell histiocytes is a poorly understood process of unknown cause. Variation in the clinical features and/or histopathology of histiocytic proliferation has led to subclassification of the general category of non‐Langerhans cell histiocytes.

Benign Cephalic Histiocytosis Progressing Into Juvenile Xanthogranuloma
The American Journal of Dermatopathology, 2000Benign cephalic histiocytosis (BCH) is best understood as a form of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, specifically as an early mononuclear variant of juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG). However, the progression of BCH into JXG in the same patient has only been reported once before.

Suprasellar non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis (Erdheim–Chester disease)—a case report
Clinical Imaging, 2013Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is an uncommon non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis that affects multiple body systems and can present clinically in a myriad of ways. An adult onset is most common with bony involvement and constitutional symptoms. We report the case of a 52-year-old female presenting with diabetes insipidus and a suprasellar mass on imaging,
