Histiocytic and Dendritic Cell Neoplasms

Histiocytic sarcoma

Langerhans cell histiocytosis

Langerhans cells are specialized dendritic cells found predominantly in the skin.

  • Derived from bone marrow monocytes
  • Present antigen to naïve T cells

Characteristic Birbeck (tennis racket) granules are seen on electron microscopy; cells are CD1a+ and S100+ by immunohistochemistry.

Clinical findings

  • Lytic bone lesions
    • eg, skull, jaw, femur
    • May be asymptomatic or associated with local pain and an overlying tender mass.
    • Although benign, they can be locally destructive and are typically treated with curettage or chemotherapy.
  • Skin lesions
    • Purplish papules, eczematous rash
  • Lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly
  • Pulmonary cysts/nodules
  • Central diabetes insipidus

  • Letterer-Siffe disease
    • Malignant proliferation of Langerhans cells
    • Skin rash and cystic skeletal defects in an infant(< 2 years old).
    • Multiple organs may be involved; rapidly fatal
  • Eosinophilic granuloma
    • Benign proliferation of Langerhans cells in bone
    • Pathologic fracture in an adolescent; skin is not involved.
    • Biopsy shows Langerhans cells with mixed inflammatory cells, including numerous eosinophils.
  • Hand-Schüller-Christian disease
    • Malignant proliferation of Langerhans cells
    • Scalp rash, lytic skull defects, diabetes insipidus, and exophthalmos in a child.

Treatment

  • Solitary bone lesions in a low-risk anatomical region 
    • Asymptomatic lesion: a wait-and-watch approach may be appropriate
    • Symptomatic lesion: curettage and/or excision (as a part of biopsy)
  • Bone lesion in a high-risk anatomical region, multifocal bone involvement, or systemic manifestation 
    • Chemotherapy (Vinblastine and prednisone)
  • Desmopressin for diabetes insipidus
