Rosai dorfman disease with haemolytic anaemia in an elderly patient: a rare presentation.

Rosai Dorfman disease (RDD) or sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML) is a rare disorder that typically manifests as lymphadenopathy and systemic symptoms.The authors report a 56 year old man who presented with massive generalised lymphadenopathy with haemolytic anaemia. Histopathological examination demonstrated lymphophagocytosis (emperipolesis) consistent with a diagnosis of RDD. Clinicians need to be aware of this entity which can present as a rare differential diagnosis of benign lymphoproliferative disorders.
