Abstract:
Generalized eruptive histiocytoma is a rare benign skin disorder with less than 50 cases reported world-wide. It belongs to type IIb of histiocytoses. The histiocytic cells are CD68 positive but lack other markers like CD1a or S100. We report on a 60-year-old male patient with generalized eruptive histiocytoma treated successfully by PUVA combined with topical corticosteroids.
