ABSTRACT
Juvenile xanthogranuloma(JXG) is a benign disorder in which one, several, or occasionally numerous red to yellow nodules are present. The lesion may be present at birth, but usually arises in early infancy. Adult-onset xanthogranuloma clinically differ from juvenile xanthogranuloma in that the lesion is usually solitary and does not involve internal organs, and generally does not resolve without treatment. We report a case of xanthogranuloma in adult which occurred on the scalp and the trunk of 52-year-old male showing typical clinical and histopathological findings.
