Childhood Langerhans cell histiocytosis: a disease with many faces.
CONCLUSIONS: Because of the broad spectrum of clinical manifestations and the extreme diversity of disease, LCH remains a diagnostic dilemma. Morphological identification of LCH cells and positive immunochemical staining with CD1a, S100, and/or CD207 (Langerin) of lesional cells are necessary for a definitive diagnosis.
