Popis: We report a pediatric case of extensive, progressive benign cephalic histiocytosis (BCH) involving the face, trunk, and extremities with response of facial lesions to treatment with topical 1% rapamycin. A split-face model was used to demonstrate improvement on the treated side versus the untreated side. After physician and parental perception of effectiveness, based in part on photodocumentation, subsequently both cheeks were treated with continued improvement.
