Solitary Type of Congenital Self-healing Reticulohistiocytosis

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Congenital self-healing reticulohistiocytosis is a rare, congenital,benign, self-healing variant of Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
It usually appears as multiple papules or nodules;however, occurrence of the solitary type is very rare. We report on a case of solitary congenital self-healing reticulohistiocytosis in a 29-day-old girl who presented with a papule on her sole. Two months later, the lesion regressed with a slight scar. Based upon clinical and histologic findings, we made a diagnosis of solitary congenital self-healing reticulohistiocytosis.
In this report, we summarized reported cases of solitary congenital self-healing retioculohistiocytosis in Korea with a review of the literature. (Ann Dermatol 23(S1) S4∼S7,2011)
