Overview
Langerhans cell histiocytosis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause bone pain, cutaneous lesions, hepatosplenomegaly, and palpable lymph nodes, such as cat-scratch disease, mastocytosis, sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy.
Differentiating Langerhans cell histiocytosis from other Diseases
- Langerhans cell histiocytosis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause bone pain, cutaneous lesions, hepatosplenomegaly, and palpable lymph nodes, such as:
- Lymphoma
- Mastocytosis
- Cat-scratch disease
- Hypersensitivity reaction
- Acrodermatitis enteropathica
- Erdheim-Chester disease
- Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome
- Seborrheic dermatitis
- Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy
- Kimura disease
- Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis
- Erythema toxicum neonatorum
- Acropustulosis of infancy
