Nasal Manifestation of extranodal Rosai – Dorfman disease – A case report
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Health Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Rosai – Dorfman disease, i.e. Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML) is a rare, idiopathic, non-neoplastic histiocytic disorder. The most common presentation is painless lymphadenopathy in a young patient. However in 25% of cases it presents as mass in skin, soft tissue, nasal cavity, eye, bone, or other extranodal sites. We report a case of extra nodal form of Rosai Dorfman disease in a young lady who presented with a nasal mass arising in the left inferior turbinate which clinically mimicked malignancy, and was treated with Endoscopic resection.
