Histiocitosis combinada de tipo Langerhans (Histiocitosis de células de Langerhans y enfermedad de Erdheim-Chester) en varón de 64 años con mutaciones en BRAF y NRAS: a propósito de un caso

We present a case of a 64-year-old male with a history of Crohn's disease who presented with an episode of acute abdominal pain. He was being investigated for a dermatological lesion. A skin and lung biopsy both revealed histiocytosis of the “L” (Langerhans) group. The skin biopsy showed a proliferation of histiocytic cells expressing Langerin, CD1a and S100 and the molecular study was positive for the BRAF p.V600E mutation. In the lung biopsy, a proliferation of histiocytic cells was found, which were positive for CD68 and S100 and negative for Langerin and CD1a; mutations in NRAS c.38G>A in exon 2 (p.G13D) were also detected.
