摘要
Central nervous system involvement is uncommon in Langerhans cell histiocytosis. The suprasellar region is more frequently affected. There have been few reports of involvement of the brain parenchyma shown on CT or MRI, We present a case of involvement of the pens, showing marked contrast enhancement on MRI.
