Joana Savva-Bordalo1, Margarida Freitas-Silva.   

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Langerhans' cell histiocytosis is a proliferative histiocytic disorder of unknown cause originating from dendritic cells. CASE

CONCLUSION: Hepatic involvement is an uncommon feature in this rare disease and there is no consensus on the most effective therapeutic approach.
