ABSTRACT
We reported a case of neonatal Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) with his clinical manifestations, examinations, diagnosis and treatment. This infant was hospitalized due to the rash and poor response. He was diagnosed as LCH after admission by imaging, skin biopsy and immunohistochemistry. The infant died because his parents refused all possible treatments. At the moment, no effective treatment is available for LCH patients, while the main managements are infection control and necessary supportive care. Pulmonary infections often contribute to the death of LCH patient and can aggravate the situation by stimulating histiocytic hyperplasia.
