【 摘 要 】

Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a rare disease in adults with a myriad of clinical presentations. A case of multisystemic Langerhans cell histiocytosis with involvement of bone, skin, lungs, and the hypothalamic-pituitary-axis is reported. The possibility of a disseminated disease should be considered in the diagnosis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis, and these patients should undergo a careful evaluation and follow up with early institution of treatment.
