Multicentric reticulohistiocytosis (RHM) is a rare non Langherhans cell histiocytosis with skin and joint involvment. Nearly all organs can be involved. Association with cancer occurs in about 25% of cases. Association with auto-immune diseases has also been recorded. Microscopic examination shows a histiocytic nodular infiltrate made of giant cells with ground-glass appearance and PAS positive cytoplasm. Immunostaining shows cell positivity for CD68 and negativity for CD1a and S100 protein. No Birbeck granules are found at ultrastructural examination.

Multicentric reticulohistiocytosis is a very rare systemic disease that affects skin, mucosa and joints. We reported a case of a woman with multicentric reticulohistiocytosis who presented typical skin syndromes and arthralgia. Immunohistochemical analysis showed positive staining for S100 protein, which was reported negative in the majority of previously presented cases. Other immunohistochemical markers (CD68(+), CD1a(-), lagerin (-) and complete histologic and clinical picture were specific enough to make the definitive diagnosis of multicentric reticulohistiocytosis. The patient was administered prednisone just when arthritis appeared and we believe that this therapy protected her from the development of destructive arthritis. No autoimmune disease or internal malignancy was observed during 12-month follow up.

Multicentric Reticulohistiocytosis (MRH) is a rare, systemic non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis (non-LCH) with prominent joint and skin manifestations. It is mostly self limiting. However, 15-30% of the cases are associated with malignancy and carry a poor prognosis. We report the case of a 42-year-old man who presented with multiple reddish-brown papules that on biopsy showed aggregates of oncocytic histiocytes with several multinucleate giant cells. Immunostains were positive for CD 68, CD 45 and were negative for S-100, CD1a. An impression of multicentric reticulohistiocytosis (MRH) was made, with the recommendation to screen for malignancy. Electron microscopy of the skin lesions showed features consistent with non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. The patient was later diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia at a follow-up visit several months later. Thus, it appears prudent to screen and follow-up adults with MRH, to identify an underlying malignant condition.
