  • Title: Oral mucosal lesions with transient self-healing of Langerhans cell histiocytosis: a case report.
    Author: Zhang X, Xue N, Ruan M, Zeng X.
    Journal: Hua Xi Kou Qiang Yi Xue Za Zhi; 2023 Oct 01; 41(5):592-598. PubMed ID: 37805684.
    Abstract:
    Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a group of unexplainable abnormal proliferation and aggregation of Langerhans cell. LCH can be classified into four clinical variants: Letterer-Siwe disease, Hand-Schüller-Christian disease, eosinophilic granuloma, and congenital self-healing LCH. LCH is most prevalent in children. Lesions can be localized in a single system or multiple organs, and clinical manifestations vary depending on the affected organs. The skin and mucocutaneous tissues are the starting point of the affected tissue. This study presents a LCH case characterized by transient self-healing. This case can further provide references for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of LCH. 朗格汉斯细胞组织细胞增生症（LCH）是一组原因不明的朗格汉斯细胞组织细胞异常增殖聚集疾病，多发于儿童。LCH分为勒-雪病、汉-许-克病、嗜酸性肉芽肿、先天性自愈性朗格汉斯细胞组织细胞增生症4种临床类型。病损可累及单器官或全身多处器官，临床表现根据累及器官不同而不同，皮肤黏膜可为LCH的首发部位。根据受累器官，LCH有不同的治疗方法，包括手术、放疗、联合化疗等。本文报道1例口腔黏膜溃疡性病损曾经出现短暂自愈的LCH，旨在为罕见病LCH的临床诊疗提供更多参考信息。.
