Abstract

Introduction Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) integrates eosinophilic granuloma, Hand-Schüller-Christian disease, and Letterer- Siwe disease due to the proliferation of histiocyte-like cells, which have now been proved to be Langerhans cells [1,2]. The BRAF V600E mutation is an important genetic factor in LCH [3], and new terminology (inflammatory myeloid neoplasia) was introduced
