A 13-year-old Ethiopian female patient who initially presented with localized pain and minimal soft tissue swelling later developed pathological fracture of the left femnur. The patient was initially treated as a case of osteomyelitis until the diagnosis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (histiocytosis X, eosiniphilic granuloma) was made by bone biopsy.
