SCAPULA LANGERHANS CELL HISTIOCYTOSIS IN A CHILD : A CASE REPORT

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a proliferative histiocytic disorder relativily rare in the perdiatric group. This complex disease has no specific clinical or radiographic presentation. The scapula is one of the rarest site of LCH. Imaging and specially MRI are particularly helpful for characterizing the lesion and delineating the local and systemic extent. In this report, we present a rare case of Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the scapula in a 07 month-old baby.
