Tumor lesion of the orbit is found in clinic various oncohematological diseases children. Untimely referral such patients to an oncologist delays timing necessary treatment, thereby worsening prognosis disease. The literature review presents features clinical manifestations orbital pathology children at onset acute myeloid leukemia, sarcoma, lymphoma, Langerhans cell and non-Langerhans histiocy...

Indeterminate cell histiocytosis is a very rare proliferative disorderof histiocytes which displays both langerhans cell histiocytosisand non langerhans cell histiocytosis immunophenotypic features.The majority of the patients develop multiple lesions which areclinically indistinguishable from generalized eruptive histiocytosis.We report a 14-year-old girl with multiple papules on the face,scal...

Pulmonary Langerhans cell granulomatosis is defined as an abnormal Langerhans cells infiltration in the lungs. Multifocal involvement is unusual, however. We report 3 cases of pulmonary Langerhans cell granulomatosis combined with either rib, thyroid or hypothalamus involvement.

La histiocitosis de células Langerhans es un trastorno neoplásico raro etiología desconocida. Varón 23 años edad, no fumador, que consultó por fiebre y síntomas constitucionales; y, las imágenes del tórax mostraron múltiples lesiones nodulares bilaterales. El estudio histopatológico evidenció infiltración histiocíticas con S100 (+), CD1a macrófagos intraalveolares CD68(+), confirmando el diagnó...

In the present study, pancreas glands in Mehraban breed of female sheep were histomorphometricallystudied in four different age groups included: fetus, newborn, sexually mature and old ages. The results ofhistomorphometrical analysis with regard to frequency and percentage of parenchymal and stromal structures such as, exocrine secretory units, secretory ducts, blood vessels, islets of Langerha...

Despite the critical role of the Langerhans cells in the induction of contact hypersensitivity reactions, non-Langerhans antigen-presenting cells in already sensitized individuals may play a role in the elicitation phase of a contact hypersensitivity reaction. Following epicutaneous challenge with antigens, the number of CD1+DR+ epidermal Langerhans cells increased in a time-dependent way and, ...

INTRODUCTION Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a proliferative disorder of histiocytes in multiple organs. Langerhans cell histiocytosis involves bones, skin, lung and other organs. CASE PRESENTATION This study describes a seven-month-old Iranian girl who presented with skin rash and cervical lymphadenopathy. Langerhans cell histiocytosis was suspected when it was associated with anemia,...

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...

Nine normal adult and seven normal infant human corneas were studied for the presence of dendritic epithelial Langerhans cells in a masked fashion. Epithelial flatmounts were separated from the underlying corneal stroma using EDTA. The epithelial Langerhans cell densities were determined in the limbus as well as the peripheral, pericentral, and central corneal regions following staining with AT...

OBJECTIVE Langerhans cell histiocytosis is an unusual disorder of unknown etiology with heterogeneous clinical behaviors and variable outcomes. It can involve one or more organs or systems, but to our best knowledge, parotid glands involvement in Langerhans cell histiocytosis is extremely rare in English literature. METHOD We report a 13-month-old girl who presented with bilateral parotid swe...
