Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis, Non-Langerhans histiocytosis and concurrent Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma with BRAF V600E mutations: A case report and literature review

open access: goldHuman Pathology: Case Reports, 2019
Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) and the non-LCH, Erdheim Chester Disease, are rare histiocytic neoplasms with distinctive clinical and immunophenotypic features, but with several overlapping molecular features. LCH is a neoplasm of Langerin-positive, CD1a-positive, S100-positive dendritic cells (DCs), once thought to arise from the epidermal or ...
