Histiocytic sarcoma is an extremely rare malignant neoplastic proliferation of the haematopoietic cells. Very few cases have been reported in the paediatric age group. Imaging features have been rarely described in the literature. It can involve any region of the body; however, it most commonly involves the lymph nodes. Its imaging appearance can mimic lymphoproliferative disorders; however, with the advent of new immunohistochemical markers, the diagnosis of HS has become more reliable. We report an unusual case of primary bone involvement by HS with multiple lesions in the facial bones of a 2-year-old female who presented with tooth and mandibular tenderness.
组织细胞肉瘤是造血细胞极其罕见的恶性肿瘤性增殖。小儿年龄组报道的病例极少。文献中很少描述其影像学特征。它可累及身体的任何部位;然而,最常累及淋巴结。其影像学表现可类似淋巴增殖性疾病;然而,随着新的免疫组化标志物的出现,组织细胞肉瘤的诊断变得更加可靠。我们报告了一例罕见的组织细胞肉瘤原发性骨受累病例,该病例发生在一名2岁女性的面骨,有多处病变,患儿表现为牙齿和下颌压痛。
