histiocytosis of langerhans cells (class 1 histiocytosis) consists of a range of clinical manifestations, including bone eosinophilic granuloma, hand-schüller-christian syndrome, and letterer-siwe disease. these syndromes represent a spectrum of severity and prognosis of an underlying disorder which is usually sporadic. this report describes three cases in one family, who developed the disease ...

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder characterized by proliferation and accumulation of clonal dendritic cells with varied clinical presentation and an unpredictable course. We report a 5-month-old infant with LCH who presented with severe respiratory distress, a large mediastinal mass, significant generalized lymphadenopathy, and hepatosplenomegaly. Lymphoma, especially T cel...

Syringoma is a benign adnexal tumor originated from the intraepidermal portion of eccrine sweat duct. They commonly present as soft, flesh colored to slightly yellow dermal papules on the lower eyelids of healthy individuals. It usually occurs in the peri-pubertal period. There are a few reports of its widespread distribution as eruptive syringoma in the literature. Treatment of this benign con...

Histiocytosis, according to Histiocyte Society2, is traditionally classifi ed into three main groups: Class I: (Langerhans cell histiocytosis), formerly called X histiocytosis Class II: Histiocytosis of other mononuclear phagocytes different from Langerhans cells Class III: Histiocytic malignancies.1,3,4 Nevertheless, Langerhans cell Histiocytosis is the currently preferred term. It is classifi...

BACKGROUND Congenital self-healing Langerhans cell histiocytosis (Hashimoto-Pritzker disease) is the rarest form of Langerhans cell histiocytosis, usually confined to the skin and/or mucous membranes. Cutaneous eruption is mostly generalized, papular, nodular or vesicular. Despite impressive clinical presentation in a newborn it infrequently spreads to internal organs (which then portends a gra...

In this review we summarize the characteristic features of multiple eruptive dermatofibromas based on an analysis of cases in the literature. Many researchers have reported multiple eruptive dermatofibromas diagnosed using the definition of "multiple" as the presence of at least 15 lesions. However, this criterion is arbitrarily chosen and might not be entirely valid for all cases. A more preci...

In open conduit volcanoes, volatile-rich magma continuously enters into the feeding system nevertheless the eruptive activity occurs intermittently. From a practical perspective, the continuous steady input of magma in the feeding system is not able to produce eruptive events alone, but rather surplus of magma inputs are required to trigger the eruptive activity. The greater the amount of surpl...

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) as a term encompasses eosinophilic granuloma and two clinical syndromes: Letterer-Siwe disease and Hand-Schüller-Christian. All these syndromes seem to represent similar processes in which the proliferating cells have the structural and functional features of Langerhans cells. In reviewing the literature found that this disease does indeed occur in some famil...

A statistical study of the chromospheric ribbon evolution in H[Formula: see text] two-ribbon flares was performed. The data set consists of 50 confined (62%) and eruptive (38%) flares that occurred from June 2000 to June 2015. The flares were selected homogeneously over the H[Formula: see text] and Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) classes, with an emphasis on including p...

indeterminate cell histiocytosis is a very rare disorder of histiocytes proliferation. it has both langerhans and non-langerhans cell histiocytosis immunophenotypic features. we described a 45-year-old man with a 2 years history of multiple yellow-brown papules and a few red nodules on his trunk and extremities. no internal involvement was detected first and after 8 months. as his lesions were ...
