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.

Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is a rare benign disorder classified as non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, with unclear etiology and pathogenesis. JXG is generally characterized by solitary or multiple cutaneous nodules that resolve spontaneously over a few years. JXG rarely presents as extracutaneous lesions that progress to a symptomatic systemic disorder through multiple organ involvement. We encountered a systemic JXG case involving the bone marrow, multiple bones, and the skin during acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treatment. A 16-year-old boy undergoing ALL treatment experienced unexplained prolonged fever and scalp, hip joint, and right knee joint pain for 2 weeks during interim maintenance chemotherapy. Bone marrow pathologic findings revealed no evidence of leukemia relapse but showed diffuse infiltration of histiocytes with several Touton-type giant cells; the stains were positive for CD68 and negative for CD1a and S100 protein. Bone and skin biopsies confirmed the findings. Symptoms have resolved since maintenance chemotherapy, which included vincristine, dexamethasone, 6-mercaptopurine, and methotrexate. Bone marrow involvement of JXG is very rare, occurring only in patients less than 1 year of age; however, this case was reported in an adolescent during ALL treatment.
