Vertebra plana caused by primary Ewing sarcoma: case report and review of the literature. |
Journal of spinal disorders & techniques 2002, 15: 252 |
|
A 7-year-old boy presented with vertebra plana of T11. The presumptive diagnosis suggested by clinical presentation, conventional radiographs, and computed tomographic scans was eosinophilic granuloma. Progressive neurologic symptoms required surgical excision of the lesion and decompression. Histopathologic examination of the surgical specimen confirmed the diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma. |

Comparison of FDG-PET scans to conventional radiography and bone scans in management of Langerhans cell histiocytosis. |
Pediatric blood & cancer 2009, 52: 97 |
|
We evaluated the effectiveness of FDG-PET scans in identifying sites of active disease and assessing response to therapy in patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). Changes in standardized uptake value (SUV) indicated increased or decreased disease activity before changes are evident by plain films or bone scans. |

Central diabetes insipidus as presenting symptom of Langerhans cell histiocytosis. |
Pediatric blood & cancer 2004, 43: 594 |
|
Central diabetes insipidus (CDI) is a rare disorder associated with various underlying diseases. Among the systemic diseases that may cause CDI, Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is the most common. Therefore, in patients with endocrinologically proven CDI, a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation is crucial to identify possible extracranial sites of LCH. The goal of the diagnostic evaluation is to yield histopathological proof of the underlying disease. If possible, this histopathological proof should be provided by a biopsy of extracranial lesions to avoid a potentially hazardous biopsy of the pituitary stalk. |
