Popis: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disease in adults characterized by proliferation of CD1a+/CD207+ and S100 myeloid dendritic cells, forming granulomas.1 An inflammatory exudate is often found with “bean-shaped” nucleated histiocytes. We report a patient with multisystem (liver, lung and brain) LCH in whom neuroimaging abnormalities accumulated and partially regressed prior to definitive treatment.
