Successful Treatment of Rosai-DorfmanDisease With Low-DoseOral Thalidomide Rosai–Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare idiopathic histiocytic proliferative disorder.1 The skin is the most frequently involved extranodal organ. Nevertheless, primary cutaneous manifestation of RDD (CRDD) without systemic involvement is rare.2 We present herein a case of CRDD showing excellent remission after low-dose or...

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...

Rosai-Dorfman disease (sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy) is a rare benign idiopathic proliferative disease of phagocytic histiocytes. Approximately 80% of patients present with painless massive cervical lymphadenopathy. Isolated extranodal involvement is relatively uncommon. Two cases of Rosai-Dorfman disease are reported: one with isolated bilateral orbital involvement and one ...

We describe a rare case of sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (Rosai-Dorfman disease) associated with a six-year history of autoimmune pancreatitis, which was controlled by steroid treatment. The patient presented with multiple, cervical and thoracic lymphadenopathy and abnormal, nodular opacities in the lung. Histologically, Rosai-Dorfman disease with numerous IgG4-positive cells...

Rosai-Dorfman disease (also known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy) is a rare benign proliferative disorder of histiocytes that typically involves the lymph nodes and can also involve extranodal sites. Rosai-Dorfman disease confined to the breast is extremely rare, but important to recognize as it can mimic malignancy. We present the case of a 63-year-old woman who presented ...

Rosai-Dorfman disease (sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy) is a benign systemic proliferative disorder of histiocytes resembling the sinus histiocytes of lymph nodes. The typical clinical features of this disease include bilateral painless lymphadenopathy, fever, and polyclonal hyperglobulinaemia. The condition may present with extranodal involvement in 43% of cases, and cutaneous...

OBJECTIVE To report the clinico-histopathologic features, management and outcome of Rosai-Dorfman disease of the orbit. DESIGN Non-comparative case series. RESULTS Rosai-Dorfman disease of the orbit constituted 0.09% of all ocular specimens received at our Institute, presenting with a firm rubbery mass causing proptosis; bilateral in 4 (57%) cases. The median age at presentation was 13 year...

Introduction: Rosai-Dorfman disease, also known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, is a rare benign disorder characterized histologically by lymphatic sinus dilatation due to histiocyte proliferation. Rosai-Dorfman disease accompanied by IgG4 plasma cell infiltration is an even rarer situation. To the best of our knowledge, no imaging report of fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emi...

Rosai-Dorfman disease is a self-limiting condition caused by histiocyte proliferation within the sinusoids of lymph nodes and in extranodal tissue. It is a rare disease, particularly in children, that progresses with extensive lymphadenopathy. This paper reports on the case of a 2-year-old child with progressive cervical lymphadenopathy associated with persistent fever and radiological findings...

Rosai-Dorfman disease is a rarely seen disease with unknown etiology. Extranodal involvement is most commonly seen in the head and neck region. Histopathologically, it is characterized by histiocytic cell proliferation. This paper presents a case of a 15-year-old male patient who presented with nasal obstruction and was surgically treated for a mass filling in the left nasal meatus that was dia...
