| Abstrakt: | Introduction: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare benign histiocytic proliferation, characterized by a group of clinical symptoms. This report presents a case of extranodal RDD manifesting as a progressively enlarging left maxillary mass in a 42-year-old woman. Surgical exploration and biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of RDD, with characteristic histopathological features including emperipolesis. Treatment involved corticotherapy, resulting in controlled maxillary pain and improvement of the disease after one year. This case underscores the potential for extra-nodal RDD presentations, posing diagnostic challenges and emphasizing the importance of considering RDD in the differential diagnosis of maxillary masses.
