Eosinophilic granuloma of the orbit.

REPORTS on intra-orbital tumours and causes of exophthalmos do not mention the disease entity ofeosinophilic granuloma first described by Lichtenstein and Jaffe (1940). Pfeiffer (1943), in reviewing 200 successive cases of exophthalmos, enumerated 31 different lesions, among which eosinophilic granuloma of the orbit was not listed. Forest (1949) reported on 222 cases of intra-orbital tumours co...

Eosinophilic granuloma of the vulva.

Laboratory studies, chest films, and bone scan findings were within normal limits. A 0.5× 0.5-cm nodule was found on the vulva. Histologic examination of a biopsy specimen from the lesion revealed Langerhans' cells that suggested eosinophilic granuloma. This diagnosis was confirmed by electron microscope examination of the specimen that demonstrated abundant Birbeck granules (A, arrows) in the ...

Eosinophilic granuloma of bone.

Traumatic granuloma/eosinophilic ulcer.

Two case reports of an uncommon type of oral ulcerative lesion are presented. These lesions are of long duration, benign and reactive, and may clinically mimic a malignant ulcer. Histologically, these are deep lesions which exhibit 'pseudoinvasion' into skeletal muscle. There is a predominance of eosinophils while other chronic inflammatory cells such as plasma cells and histiocytes are in abun...
