Abstract:
Xanthoma disseminatum (XD) is a nonfamilial type of normolipidemic mucocutaneous xanthomatosis that belongs to the group of non-Langerhans cell histiocytoses. More than 100 cases of XD have been reported. In this study we report a case of XD in a 4-year-old boy with diabetes insipidus (DI). This boy is one of the youngest patients ever to present with XD combined with DI.
