Langerhans cell tumor is a kind of tumor that originates from Langerhans cells (LC) and maintain their specific phenotype profile and ultrastructural features. Based on cell morphology, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural characteristics, Langerhans cell tumor has two main subcategories: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) and Langerhans cell sarcoma (LCS). LCH is a benign clonal proliferative disease of the LC, whereas LCS is an extremely rare neoplastic proliferation of Langerhans cells with overtly malignant cytologic features and spreads aggressively, which is considered to be a high level malignant type of LCH. Both LCH and LCS can involved various tissues and organs and have complex and diverse clinical manifestation, which cause different severity. The diagnosis depends on histopathological morphology and immunohistochemistry; the electron microscopy was used to assists diagnosis when necessary. The treatment includes surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, etc, but lack of generally accepted optimal treatment options currently, individualized treatment is needed. The prognosis of LCH is primarily related to the number of damaged organ, while LCS has a poor overall prognosis as its invasion and rapid progress. This article reviews the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of both LCH and LCS.

10.Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in childhood, Langerhans cell histiocytosis in adulthood: More than a chance association?
Kuan Yueh Chien ; Nurain Mohd Noor
The Medical Journal of Malaysia 2017;72(1):50-52
Described herein, a case of Langerhans cell histiocytosis
(LCH) in an adult with Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
(ITP) diagnosed at age ten. She presented with cranial
diabetes insipidus, later developed hypogonadotrophic
hypogonadism and multiple cervical lympadenopathy from
which histopathology of excisional biopsy confirmed LCH.
Magnetic resonance imaging showed thickened pituitary
stalk. Association of ITP and LCH is unknown but the
question of LCH presenting as isolated thrombocytopenia in
childhood only to be discovered in adulthood when there
was pituitary and bone involvement remains. It
reemphasizes the need for high index of suspicion and the
challenges in diagnosing LCH at the outset.
