Langerhans cell histiocytosis research. Past, present, and future
This article reviews the various investigative events that led to the endorsement of the term Langerhans cell histiocytosis for the various clinicopathologic conditions previously called Hand-Schüller-Christian disease, Abt-Letterer-Siwe disease, eosinophilic granuloma of bone, and histiocytosis X. The different denominations reflect the changing conceptual approaches to the so-called reticuloendothelial system and the successive acquisition of new ultrastructural and immunocytochemical data.
