  • Title: [Reticulohistiocytosis of benign evolution (Hashimoto-Pritzker type). Electron microscopy study].
    Author: Laugier P, Hunziker N, Laut J, Orusco M, Osmos L.
    Journal: Ann Dermatol Syphiligr (Paris); 1975; 102(1):21-31. PubMed ID: 179459.
    Abstract:
    We describe a rare form of histiocytosis, characterized by numerous tumoral lesions of the skin appearing at birth and desappearing spontaneously within 2 month without visceral lesions and without systemic symptoms. Light microscopy shows histiocytes, some of which contain an irregular nucleus with a spumous cytoplasm surrounded by many red blood cells. Electron microscopy shows myelinoid inclusions in the histiocyte cytoplasm and "vermiform" bodies. In our opinion, a similar anatomoclinical entity was described for the first time and only once by Hashimoto and Pritzker.
