摘要
Introduction: Langerhans' cell histiocytosis is a proliferative histiocytic disorder of unknown cause originating from dendritic cells. Case presentation: The authors report a case of Langerhans' cell histiocytosis in a 48-year-old man with multisystemic disease presentation, including liver involvement. Conclusion: Hepatic involvement is an uncommon feature in this rare disease and there is no consensus on the most effective therapeutic approach. © 2008 Savva-Bordalo and Freitas-Silva; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
