Erdheim-Chester Disease in a 48-Year Old Woman with “An Unknown Tumour of the Heart:” An Autopsy Report.
Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. ECD is considered a potentially severe multi-systemic disease with life-threatening manifestations due to the compression of normal structures. Recently, mutation of the proto-oncogene BRAF (BRAFV600E) has been found in 100% of cases. The common sites of involvement are the skeleton, central nervous system, cardiovascular system, lungs, retroperitoneum and skin. We present the autopsy case of a 48-year old caucasian woman with an unknown tumour of the heart, where autopsy revealed the diagnosis of ECD. The clinical, radiological, and pathological manifestations associated with ECD are highlighted.
