By means of microsurgical lymph cannulation human skin lymph derived from the late phase of an elicitation reaction to diphenylcyclopropenone was sampled. Cells were isolated by centrifugation and then treated with mouse anti-CD1a monoclonal antibodies and sheep antimouse antibody-coated Dynabeads. Ultrastructural and immunocytochemical analyses revealed anti-CD1a/Dynabead-rosetted CD1a- and protein S-100-positive cells which did not express monocyte surface markers, but surface antigens such as HLA-DR, ICAM-1 and, in part, LFA-3. In comparison to freshly prepared human epidermal Langerhans cells (LC), a large fraction of these cells contained no or markedly fewer Birbeck granules and exhibited extensive ruffling of the surface. These data suggest that the phenotype of LC in skin lymph derived from the elicitation phase of allergic contact dermatitis is similar to LC cultured in vitro. In the functional concept of LC of our time, these cells correspond to the dendritic cells designated as "veiled".

A 2-year-old boy had hundreds of discrete, small, flat yellow to brown colored papules distributed over the face, neck, and trunk. Biopsy revealed a well-demarcated infiltrate within the papillary dermis composed of histiocytes and some Touton giant cells and eosinophils. The cells were negative for protein S-100 and CD1a but positive for CD68 staining. No systemic lesions of juvenile xanthogranuloma were identified. Lichenoid juvenile xanthogranuloma is a very infrequent variant of juvenile xanthogranuloma.

The association between Rosai-Dorfman Disease (RDD) and cancer was reported for the first time in 1984. However, there are still a small number of reports of this association. We describe a 60-year-old woman who presented with a focal onset motor seizure followed by tonic-clonic generalization and persistent headache. Magnetic Resonance Imaging disclosed an irregular hyperintense lesion in T2 and vasogenic edema in the left parietal region. Immunohistochemical analysis of a biopsy fragment was positive for protein S-100 and CD68 and negative for CD1a, compatible with the diagnosis of RDD. She previously had breast cancer six years earlier and had used tamoxifen for two years and anostrozol for three years after diagnosis of cancer. RDD has been already associated with different cancers, such as Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, melanoma, adenocarcinoma and small cell lung cancer. As far as we know, this is the first report of an association between breast cancer and RDD.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is rarely encountered in ophthalmology practice. It is a spectrum of disorder characterized by accumulation of histiocytes in various tissues. Diagnosis is challenging as it may simulate periorbital hematoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, and neuroblastoma. We report a case of unifocal LCH with orbital extension. Diagnosis was obtained from incisional biopsy, and histopathological examination showed numerous histiocytes with eosinophilic infiltrations. The presence of Langerhans cells was confirmed by the presence of protein S-100, CD1a, and/or Langerin (CD207). Treatment depends on the degree of organ involvement. She responded well to cytotoxic drugs and steroids. This emphasized that prompt tissue diagnosis is crucial for early management.
