Unifocal Type-3 Mixed Histiocytosis in a 10-Years Old Child

We describe a 10 year-old boy with unifocal (type-3) mixed histiocytosis - Langerhans cell histiocytosis combined with a lesion with features intermediate between Rosai-Dorfman disease and reticulohistiocytosis. Sixty months after excision, the child is disease free.DISCUSSION: Cutaneous type-3 mixed histiocytosis (Langerhans cell histiocytosis with Rosai-Dorfman disease/reticulohistiocytosis) may occur in older childhood, be unifocal, and be cured by surgical excision.PMID:37606204 | DOI:10.1080/15513815.2023.2245489
