Abstract
We report the case of a 43-year-old woman who suffered from a polyostotic form of Langerhans cell granulomatosis (LCG) in the mandible and maxilla. The course of the disease was followed for more than 14 years. The disease's progression finally required subtotal resection of the mandible and reconstruction with a microvascular fibula graft. The literature is reviewed for diagnostic and treatment concepts based on the different stages of LCG.Entities:
