Generalized eruptive histiocytosis is a benign proliferative disorder of non-Langerhans cells. It is a very rare disease. The disease presents with soft to firm fleshy papules on face, neck and upper trunk. Biopsy is often needed to make the diagnosis because of its rarity and diverse presentation. There is tendency for the disease to regress spontaneously without treatment. Treatment, if any needed, suffices to topical modalities. We report here a case of generalized eruptive histiocytosis which presented with lesions of dual morphology. This is a very rare disease with diverse presentation being reported first ever in our country.
泛发性发疹性组织细胞增多症是一种非朗格汉斯细胞的良性增殖性疾病。它是一种非常罕见的疾病。该疾病表现为面部、颈部和上躯干出现质地由软至硬的肉质丘疹。由于其罕见性和多样的表现,通常需要进行活检来确诊。该疾病有未经治疗而自发消退的倾向。如有需要,治疗采用局部治疗方法即可。我们在此报告一例泛发性发疹性组织细胞增多症,其表现为具有双重形态的皮损。这是一种非常罕见的疾病,具有多样的表现,在我国尚属首次报道。
