Abstract

Langerhans' Cell Histiocytosis is a rare disease of unknown etiology, the pathogenesis of which involves both reactive and neoplastic processes. Despite potential resolution with conservative management, a rare recurrence in a distant site after 3 years from presentation in this case highlights the variability in the course of the disease and the need for larger studies to enable recognition and evidence-based management.
