Complete remission of multicentric reticulohistiocytosis with combination therapy of steroid, cyclophosphamide, and low-dose pulse methotrexate. Case report, review of the literature, and proposal for treatment.

We describe a patient with multicentric reticulohistiocytosis in whom complete remission was achieved by sequential combination therapy with steroid, methotrexate, and cyclophosphamide. We reviewed all cases of complete or near-complete remissions of multicentric reticulohistiocytosis reported in the English-language literature and propose a new drug regimen for this rare but potentially disabling disease.
