Rosai - Dorfman Disease – A Rare Cause of Cervical Lymphadenopathy
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Dentistry - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract: Rosai-Dorfman Disease also known as Sinus Histiocytosis with Massive Lymphadenopathy (SHML) is a rareclinic-pathological condition. It is a benign condition which causes significant cervical Lymphadenopathy in children and young adults. The clinical Presentation varies from isolated nodal involvement to significant extra-nodal manifestations. The clinical features are usually mild but rarely life threatening complications can occur in some individuals depending on the site of involvement. Here we present two cases of Rosai-Dorfman Disease, both diagnosed on FNAC and istopathology and responded well to steroids. One of the patients had extra nodal site involvement in the form of bilateral Nasal mass which is very rare.
