Non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis refers to a family of histiocytosis characterized by the absence of Langerhans cells.[1]
Many manifest cutaneously.[2]
the spectrum of non-langerhans cell histiocytoses include:
- Benign cephalic histiocytosis
- Generalized eruptive histiocytoma
- Indeterminate cell histiocytosis
- Juvenile xanthogranuloma
- Progressive nodular histiocytoma
- Necrobiotic xanthogranuloma
- (Giant Cell) Reticulohistiocytoma
- Multicentric reticulohistiocytosis
- Rosai–Dorfman disease
- Xanthoma disseminatum
- Kikuchi disease
- Erdheim–Chester disease.[3]
