A 45-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with chief complaint of fever. The chest X-ray examination showed 2-3 mm fine nodular shadows throughout the entire lung fields. Eosinophilia was present in the peripheral blood. Spike-like high fever (39 degrees C) appeared every 48 hours. All
The eosinophilic granuloma is a unifocal or multifocal Langerhans cell histiocytosis characterized by an expanding proliferation of Langerhans cells in bones. Skeletal LCH is a rare condition, and vertebral regeneration in cases of vertebral body collapse is even rarer. We report the case of a girl
We studied the clinical features of 17 Japanese patients with pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma. Fourteen of the patients were men and three were women; they ranged in age from 19 to 64 years, with a mean of 34 years at the time of the first examination. Pathologic diagnosis in all patients was based
A case of pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma that underwent spontaneous remission is presented. A 23-year old man presented with dry cough and fever. Chest X-ray film revealed diffuse reticulo-nodular infiltrates in the middle and upper lung fields. Chest CT and HRCT showed multiple cystic lesions
A patient with eosinophilic granuloma, histologically confirmed from open lung biopsy specimen, had a history of scarlet fever and a prominently high level of circulating gamma/delta T cells (25 percent) in comparison with normal levels (< 10 percent). Despite steroid therapy, the levels were
A case of pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma which was diagnosed by TBLB was presented. A 24-year-old male was admitted complaining of cough and fever of unknown etiology. He had a history of fever which had disappeared spontaneously 9 months previously. Laboratory examinations including blood gas
Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a rare neoplastic proliferative disorder of the Langerhans cells. The clinical course is variable, ranging from a low symptomatic single bone lesion to fatal multiple organ involvement. Rarely, the sternum can be the first and single location of the disease. We
Eosinophilic granuloma confined to the lymph node of a 25-year-old Japanese woman is reported. She presented with a low-grade fever and pain in the left cervical region. A finger-tip-sized cervical lymph node was excised for histological study. Microscopically, the normal architecture of the lymph
This is a case report of intestinal eosinophilic granuloma caused by Ascaris ova and worm which is supposed to be rare in Korea. CASE: A 23 year old healthy female reached Pusan Sanitation Hospital with complaints of high fever and abdominal pain on December 3 in 1966. Examination: Her temperature
A total of 116 cases of intestinal eosinophilic granuloma caused by Angiostrongylus costaricensis in children were studied during the 10-year period 1966-1975 at Costa Rica's National Children's Hospital. A similar prevalence of cases was observed each year. The disease was twice as frequent in
BACKGROUND
Previous case reports and small series have reported on the treatment of eosinophilic granuloma of bone. We present our long experience in a large group of children and teenagers with symptomatic eosinophilic granuloma of the appendicular skeleton to evaluate clinical and imaging outcome
Children with the clinical syndrome of visceral larva migrans as a result of Toxocara species have typical lesions in the liver and other viscera, consisting of palisading granulomas that contain numerous eosinophils and often Charcot-Leyden crystals; recognizable parasites are uncommon. Similar
Otological involvement in Histiocytosis X, although infrequent, may be present in any of the forms of this entity. The otologist must keep Histiocytosis X in mind in the differential diagnosis of cases presenting with post-aural swelling, non purulent otorrhea and absence of fever and pain in
BACKGROUND--Histiocytosis of Langerhans cells includes a range of clinical manifestations that have been described as bone eosinophilic granuloma, Hand-Schüller-Christian syndrome, Letterer-Siwe syndrome and Hashimoto-Pritzker histiocytosis. These syndromes represent a spectrum of severity and
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) as a term encompasses eosinophilic granuloma and two clinical syndromes: Letterer-Siwe disease and Hand-Schüller-Christian. All these syndromes seem to represent similar processes in which the proliferating cells have the structural and functional features of
