摘要
A case of histiocytosis X (Langerhans‐cell histiocytosis) occurring in the maxilla of a two‐year‐old boy is presented. Common dental and oral conditions were considered and eliminated. Diagnosis was made through a biopsy which showed aggregates of histiocytes. Management consisted of multi‐modal treatment. Full skeletal radiographic survey and review were essential to detect other possible sites of involvement. None was found in this case over a four‐year review. 1990 Australian Dental Association
