RESUMO
Langheransian cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare pathology characterized by the proliferation of CD1+ and Langerin+ cells. It can affect all ages, with an estimated prevalence of one to two cases/100,000 habitants. The involvement is often multi-visceral; however, isolated cutaneous involvement can be found in 40% of cases with very variable manifestations. We report the case of 45-year-old women followed for non-insulin-dependent diabetes and primary hyperparathyroidism suffering from isolated and refractory cutaneous histiocytosis.
