Abstract
Primary cutaneous Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare proliferative disorder of histiocytes involving exclusively skin. The diagnosis of cutaneous RDD relies on clinical, histopathological and immunohistochemical findings. Cytological diagnosis can also be made in the presence of diagnostic features like histiocytic proliferation and prominent emperipolesis. We present two rare cases of primary cutaneous RDD: a 20-year-old male and an 8-year-old male, diagnosed on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). The first case was multicentric with swellings on the nose and arm, while the second patient had a single swelling on the right pinna. FNAC was reported as cutaneous RDD in both cases, which was later confirmed on histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Cytopathology is to publish articles relating to those aspects of cytology which will increase our knowledge and understanding of the aetiology, diagnosis and management of human disease. It contains original articles and critical reviews on all aspects of clinical cytology in its broadest sense, including: gynaecological and non-gynaecological cytology; fine needle aspiration and screening strategy.
Cytopathology welcomes papers and articles on: ultrastructural, histochemical and immunocytochemical studies of the cell; quantitative cytology and DNA hybridization as applied to cytological material.
