Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 9
Abstract
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare and heterogeneous disease of unknown etiopathogenesis caused by clonal proliferation of Langerhans cells. We report a case of an adult woman diagnosed with Langerhans cell histiocytosis with neurological, endocrine and bone involvement. Clinicians should consider Langerhans cell histiocytosis in combination of central diabetes insipidus and lytic bone lesions.
