چکیده
BACKGROUND Eruptive collagenoma is a rare disease. All of the previously reported cases were located on the skin. Here we report such a case occurring in esophagus and intestine. CASE PRESENTATION Our patient is a Chinese woman. Two years ago, hundreds of small nodules were identified in her esophagus and intestine. The lesions were characterized by thickened hyalinized collagen fibers and haphazard neoplastic stellate cells. The tumor cells showed generally positive for vimentin and negative for h-CALD, CD34, desmin, CD163, AE1/AE3, CK7 and CK20. The nodules were blue with Masson Trichrome stain. The clinicopathological, immunohistochemical and histochemical features of the tumor were consistent with eruptive collagenoma. The patient was not given specific treatment after diagnosis, and a routine examination indicated that there was no progress for 2 years. CONCLUSION Hitherto, this is the first case of eruptive collagenoma to have been reported occurring in esophagus and intestine.

Pre-Eruptive Intracronal Radiolucency (PEIR) is seen as a radiolucent anomaly at coronal dentin of unerupted teeth. PEIR is often confused because of similarities with dental caries. Pre-eruptive intracoronal resorptions are typically observed as radiolucency in dentin tissue, and the lesions are close to the enamel dentin junction. Lesions are often coincidentally noticed on the radiographs of...

The histiocytoses are a group of proliferative disorders of themonocyte-macrophage lineage that are neoplastic or reactive innature. Based on immunophenotyping and electron microscopy,two main groups have been recognized namely 1) Langerhanscell histiocytosis (LCH) and 2) non- Langerhans cell histiocytosis(non-LCH). In this study, a fairly rare disease of the non-LCHgroup, generalized eruptive ...
