چکیده
Puvitha R. Duraisami* Department of Pathology, Coimbatore Medical College, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) or sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy is a rare, benign, histiocytic proliferative disorder. It can be encountered in both nodal and extra nodal locations. Fine needle aspiration technique is a simple, accurate and most economic tool, being used widely. Fourteen year old male child presented with bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy. Fine needle aspiration of cervical node revealed RDD, which was later confirmed by histopathology and immunochemistry. Owing to the rarity, cytomorphological appearance of this disease and its mimics are considered

Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (Rosai-Dorfman disease) is a rare, benign self-limiting condition of unknown etiology. Less than a quarter of cases have only extranodal involvement and a few cases of skeletal involvement of Rosai-Dorfman disease without associated lymphadenopathy have been reported in the literature. We herein report cytohistologic findings in a case of sole sk...
متن کاملA case of Rosai-Dorfman disease in a pediatric patient with cardiac involvement.
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) involves abnormal proliferations of oddly behaving histocytes that are not derived from the Langerhan's Cell linage. These collections tend to occur within lymph nodes, with occasional extra nodal presentation. While RDD is a rare entity itself, extra nodal cases are even more so, with even fewer reporting cardiac involvement, and previously only in adults. This repo...
متن کاملCutaneous Rosai-Dorfman Disease presenting as a flank swelling.
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is primarily a disease of lymph nodes caused by accumulation of excessive histiocytes. The extra-nodal sites are simultaneously involved in almost half the cases. However, presentation with isolated extra-nodal sites is uncommon and disease confined to skin and soft tissues is a rare entity. We report RDD in a 33 year old man who presented as a flank mass and was a d...
