Histiocytic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract.
[erdheim-chester disease]
The
morphologic
diagnosis
of
histiocytic
lesions
of
the
gastrointestinal
tract
can
be
challenging
,
and
several
disorders
have
to
be
considered
in
their
differential
diagnosis
.
We
present
one
of
the
most
widespread
examples
of
xanthomatosis
of
the
gastrointestinal
tract
published
so
far
and
give
a
short
review
on
histiocytic
disorders
of
the
gastrointestinal
tract
in
general
.
The
primary
histiocytic
disorders
of
uncertain
origin
,
Rosai-
Dorfman
disease
,
Langerhans
cell
histiocytosis
,
and
Erdheim-
Chester
disease
,
are
addressed
.
Reactive
and
infectious
conditions
such
as
xanthomatosis
,
xanthogranulomatous
inflammation
,
juvenile
xanthogranuloma
,
Whipple
's
disease
and
malacoplakia
are
discussed
as
well
.
We
also
briefly
go
into
primary
histiocytic
disorders
of
neoplastic
origin
,
systemic
diseases
with
secondary
gastrointestinal
tract
involvement
like
the
lysosomal
storage
disorders
,
and
pigmented
lesions
.
Using
a
panel
of
histochemical
stains
and
immunohistochemical
markers
,
together
with
conventional
microscopy
,
clinical
information
,
and
imaging
studies
,
the
diagnosis
of
histiocytic
disorders
of
the
gastrointestinal
tract
can
be
established
in
most
instances
.
