Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), previously known as "histiocytosis X", is a clinical entity characterized by abnormal proliferation of Langerhans cells, which exert a mass effect. Orbital involvement due to LCH is rare as a unifocal disease, seldom occurring outside the pediatric population. We report a case of a 21-year-old man with solitary LCH of the orbit depicted by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diagnosed by histopathological examination.
朗格汉斯细胞组织细胞增多症(LCH),以前称为“组织细胞增多症X”,是一种以朗格汉斯细胞异常增殖并产生占位效应为特征的临床病症。作为一种单灶性疾病,LCH累及眼眶的情况罕见,很少发生在儿童群体之外。我们报告一例21岁男性眼眶孤立性LCH病例,通过磁共振成像(MRI)显示并经组织病理学检查确诊。
