Abstract :
The histiocytoses are a group of proliferative disorders of the
monocyte-macrophage lineage that are neoplastic or reactive in
nature. Based on immunophenotyping and electron microscopy,
two main groups have been recognized namely 1) Langerhans
cell histiocytosis (LCH) and 2) non- Langerhans cell histiocytosis
(non-LCH). In this study, a fairly rare disease of the non-LCH
group, generalized eruptive histiocytosis, has been reported.
