Erdheim-Chester disease is a rare, systemic histiocytosis that involves multiple organ systems and causes symmetric sclerosis of the metaphysis and diaphysis of the long bones. We present 2 cases and reviewed 108 patients reported in the literature who had neurologic manifestations of Erdheim-Chester disease. After eye involvement or diabetes insipidus, cerebellar symptoms were most frequently encountered, followed by tumor, headaches, cord compression, mental status change, seizures, and change in libido. A wide range of neurological symptoms can be seen in ECD. Therefore we hope the review brings more awareness about this disorder.
厄德里希-切斯特病是一种罕见的系统性组织细胞增多症,累及多个器官系统,导致长骨干骺端和骨干的对称性硬化。我们报告了2例病例,并回顾了文献中报道的108例有厄德里希-切斯特病神经表现的患者。在眼部受累或尿崩症之后,小脑症状最为常见,其次是肿瘤、头痛、脊髓压迫、精神状态改变、癫痫发作和性欲改变。在厄德里希-切斯特病中可见广泛的神经症状。因此,我们希望这篇综述能提高人们对这种疾病的认识。
