Background Nummular headache is a rare, recently described topographic headache defined by the circumscribed coin-shaped area of pain. It is classified as a primary headache. There is debate about whether it is due to a peripheral or central disturbance, and its relationship to migraine. Case
OBJECTIVE
To explore the frequency and course of neurodegenerative central nervous system (CNS) disease in Langerhans cell histiocytosis (ND-LCH).
METHODS
We studied 83 patients with LCH in whom magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain was performed at least twice for various clinical
A retrospective analysis of 40 cases with histiocytosis X was undertaken to find out the course of primarily localized disease, and the prognosis of children with initially disseminated disease. Bone lesions recurred in nine of 23 children with localized histiocytosis X. In eleven cases other organ
Due to the rarity of skull Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), correlations between abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and pathological findings have not been fully evaluated. Only a few reports have as yet compared MRI of LCH infiltration and histological diagnostic features. A
OBJECTIVE
To report 3 patients with adult-onset orbital Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH).
METHODS
Retrospective interventional case reports.
METHODS
Three adult patients with orbital LCH.
METHODS
Case reports from 2 different clinics and review of the scientific literature.
METHODS
Clinical
A case of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) in the hypothalamus is presented. A 52 year old man with eosinophilic granuloma of the lung was referred to our hospital. He complained of headache, easy fatigability, high fever, and voiding large quantities of urine, but was otherwise asymptomatic.
A 29-year-old female with past medical history of chronic serous otitis media presented with worsening neck stiffness and pain over a period of 2 weeks. The patient described non-specific symptoms that were localized to the right side of her neck. She presented to the hospital only when the pain was
We report two cases of Langerhans' cell histiocytosis with unusual central nervous system (CNS) involvement. The first patient had behavioural disturbances, memory loss and diabetes insipidus. His response to a range of treatments was poor. The second patient presented with seizures and headaches
Nonconvulsive status epilepticus can present with several manifestations, many of which might not be obvious. The most important for the diagnosis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus is the electroencephalogram (EEG) pattern. This is a case report of a 9-year-old boy with severe and continuous
Nonconvulsive status epilepticus may present with several manifestations, and many of them may not be obvious. The most important for the diagnosis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus is the electroencephalogram pattern. This is a case report of a 9-year-old boy with severe and continuous headache.
Langerhans' cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disease with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations, varying from an isolated lesion to systemic involvement. The etiology of this disease remains to be elucidated. The present study reports a case of LCH with temporal fossa localization in an
A 17-year-old boy presented with a left upper lid swelling, headaches and diplopia. An orbital computerized tomography (CT) scan showed a mass in the left lacrimal fossa eroding bone and extending into the temporalis fossa and intracranially. An urgent biopsy without curettage was carried out and
Eosinophilic granuloma (EG), Letterer-Siwe disease and Hand-Schuller-Christian disease are collectively called Langherans-cell histiocytosis (LCH). While the latter two are systemic diseases, the former is a localized form of histiocytosis. Solitary EG of the skull are rare lesions characterized by
