Granuloma eosinofílico cervical en el adolescente: reporte de un caso y revisión de la literatura / Cervical eosinophilic granuloma in adolescents: case report and literature review

INTRODUCCIÓN El granuloma eosinofílico (GE) es una patología infrecuente, sobre todo en adultos, que puede afectar la columna cervical. A pesar de la vasta literatura, esta enfermedad afecta principalmente a la población infantil, y no hay un consenso sobre el manejo en adultos. Con el objetivo de aportar conocimiento respecto a esta patología poco frecuente, se presenta un caso clínico de GE cervical en un paciente de 16 años, a quien se trató de manera conservadora, con buenos resultados y retorno completo a sus actividades. CASO CLÍNICO Un hombre de 16 años, seleccionado de rugby, consultó por dolor cervical axial persistente y nocturno de 6 semanas de evolución, sin trauma evidente. Al examen, destacó dolor a la compresión axial sin compromiso neurológico asociado. Los exámenes de tomografía computarizada (TC) y resonancia magnética (RM) revelaron lesión lítica en el cuerpo de C3 de características agresivas, de presentación monostótica en tomografía por emisión de positrones-tomografía computada (TEP-TC) compatible con tumor primario vertebral. Se decidió realizar biopsia percutánea bajo TC, para definir el diagnóstico y manejo adecuado, la cual fue compatible con células de Langerhans. Al no presentar clínica ni imagenología de inestabilidad ósea evidente o compromiso neurológico, se manejó con tratamiento conservador, inmovilización cervical, analgesia oral, y seguimiento estrecho. A los cuatro meses de evolución, se presentó con una TC con cambios reparativos del cuerpo vertebral y sin dolor, y logró retomar sus actividad habituales. CONCLUSIONES El diagnóstico de GE es infrecuente a esta edad, y se debe plantear entre diagnósticos diferenciales de lesiones líticas agresivas primarias vertebrales. Es necesario el uso de imágenes, y la biopsia vertebral es fundamental para confirmar el diagnóstico. Su manejo va a depender de la sintomatología, del compromiso de estructuras vecinas, y de la estabilidad de la vértebra afectada. El manejo conservador con seguimiento clínico e imagenológico es una opción viable.

INTRODUCTION Eosinophilic granuloma (EG) is a rare, tumor-like lesion, infrequently affecting the cervical spine, particularly in adults. Although vastly described in literature, this pathology mainly affects children, and there is still no consensus on its treatment in older patients. With the goal of contributing to increase the knowledge regarding this infrequent pathology, we present a case of a C3 eosinophilic granuloma in a 16-year-old patient, who was treated conservatively, with good results, including complete return to his previous activities. CLINICAL CASE a 16-year-old male, elite rugby player, presented with a history of persistent neck pain, mainly at night, with no previous trauma. Upon physical examination, he reported neck pain with axial compression of the head, without neurological impairment. Both computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan revealed an aggressive lytic lesion in the C3 vertebral body, a with monostotic presentation on positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) compatible with a primary spine tumor. A CT-guided percutaneous biopsy was obtained to establish the diagnosis and provide the proper management. The results were compatible with Langerhans cells. As he presented no symptoms or imaging findings of evident bone instability, as well as no neurological impairment, the patient was treated conservatively, with a cervical brace, oral pain medication and close followup. A CT obtained after four months of treatment showed reparative changes of the C3 vertebral body; at this point, the patient reported no neck pain, so he was able to return to his previous activities. CONCLUSIONS Although an EG is rare at this age, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of primary vertebral aggressive lytic lesions. Imaging and a vertebral biopsy are paramount to confirm the diagnosis. The treatment modality depends on the symptoms, the involvement of adjacent structures, and the stability of the affected vertebra. Conservative management including clinical and imaging followup is a viable option.

Traumatic ulcerative granuloma with stromal eosinophilia, an unusual clinical manifestation in the oral mucosa: case report / Granuloma ulcerativo traumático con eosinofilia estromal, una manifestación clínica inusual en la mucosa oral: reporte de un caso

Introduction: Traumatic ulcerative granuloma with stromal eosinophilia is an uncommon condition of the oral mucosa with a chronic course, usually affecting the tongue. Case Report: Clinically it presents as a chronic ulcer, with raised and indurated borders, rarely presented as a tumor. Histologically it shows a diffuse mixed inflammatory infiltrate, rich in eosinophils. The etiology of this lesion is still unclear; however, chronic irritation from traumatic agents is considered a major initiating factor. In some cases, the presence of CD30+ mononuclear cells within the lesions suggest the possibility of a CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorder. This article presents a case of a traumatic ulcerative granuloma with stromal eosinophilia manifested in a 56-year-old female with a solitary ulcerated tumor inside the right cheek. Conclusion: It was diagnosed based on clinical data and histopathological features. In a brief literature review, the entity has been characterized, analyzing its etiology and nature.

Introducción: El granuloma ulcerativo traumático con eosinofilia estromal es una afección infrecuente de la mucosa oral de curso crónico, que suele afectar a la lengua. Case Report: Clínicamente se presenta como una úlcera crónica, con bordes elevados e indurados, rara vez se presenta como un tumor. Histológicamente muestra un infiltrado inflamatorio mixto difuso, rico en eosinófilos. La etiología de esta lesión aún no está clara; sin embargo, la irritación crónica por agentes traumáticos se considera un factor de iniciación importante. En algunos casos, la presencia de células mononucleares CD30 + dentro de las lesiones sugiere la posibilidad de un trastorno linfoproliferativo CD30+. En este artículo se presenta el caso de un granuloma ulcerativo traumático con eosinofilia estromal que se manifiesta en una mujer de 56 años con un tumor ulcerado solitario en el interior de la mejilla derecha. Conclusión: Se diagnosticó con base en datos clínicos y características histopatológicas. En una breve revisión de la literatura se ha caracterizado la entidad, analizando su etiología y naturaleza.

This paper reports a case of multifocal eosinophilic granuloma of jaw with long-term follow-up. The patient initially presented with periodontal tissue destruction.The diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of multifocal eosinophilic granuloma of jaw were discussed in combination with the literature to alert this disease in clinical practice.

Toxocara canis Mimicking a Metastatic Omental Mass from Sigmoid Colon Cancer: A Case Report

Toxocara canis is an important roundworm of canids and a fearsome animal parasite of humans. Human infections can lead to syndromes called visceral larva migrans (VLM), ocular larva migrans, neurotoxocariasis, and covert toxocariasis. VLM is most commonly diagnosed in children younger than 8 years of age, but adult cases are relatively frequent among those infected by ingesting the raw tissue of paratenic hosts in East Asia. This research reports the case of a 59-year-old man with sigmoid colon cancer, who visited our institution for surgery. An intraperitoneal mass was found on preoperative computed tomography, and it was thought to be a metastatic mass from sigmoid colon cancer. A postoperative histologic examination and serum test showed eosinophilic granuloma due to toxocariasis. Diagnosis of VLM is often difficult and highly suspicious in adults. Researchers suggest, although rarely, that VLM be included in the differential diagnosis as a cause of intraperitoneal tumors.

Langerhans' cell histiocytosis with neurological injuries diagnosed from a single cutaneous lesion

Abstract: Histiocytoses are rare diseases caused by the proliferation of histiocytes. The pathogenesis remains unknown and the highest incidence occurs in pediatric patients. The clinical presentations can be varied, in multiple organs and systems, and the skin lesions are not always present. Evolution is unpredictable and treatment depends on the extent and severity of the disease. It is described the case of a patient with various neurological symptoms, extensively investigated, who had its was diagnosed with histiocytosis from a single skin lesion. This report highlights the importance of Dermatology in assisting the investigation of difficult cases in medical practice.

Rhinofacial conidiobolomycosis in a 16-year-old girl

@#<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>OBJECTIVES:</strong> To present the case of a 16-year-old girl with progressive facial disfigurement spanning 11 months due to conidiobolomycosis<br /><strong>METHODS:</strong><br /><strong>Design</strong>: Case Report<br /><strong>Setting:</strong> Tertiary Government Hospital<br /><strong>Patient:</strong> One<br /><strong>RESULTS:</strong> A 16-year-old girl presented with a severe facial deformity of 11 months duration. The lesion started as a swelling in the right nasal vestibule, which later involved the entire nose, forehead, cheeks, upper and lower lip. A series of tissue biopsies revealed varied results-- chronic inflammation, chronic granulomatous inflammation with foreign body type giant cells, and eosinophilic granuloma- resulting in delayed provision of appropriate treatment. On the fourth biopsy using the Grocott methenamine silver staining technique, septate fungal hyphae were identified. With a diagnosis of rhinofacial conidiobolomycosis, she was started on Itraconazole 100mg three times daily for eight months. Her facial swelling subsided gradually during the course of treatment and no systemic drug-related complications were observed. <br /><strong>CONCLUSION:</strong> Rhinofacial conidiobolomycosis is a rare chronic localized fungal infection that usually affects midline facial structures in immunocompetent hosts. Early detection and diagnosis, and appropriate medication can give rapid resolution. To the best of our knowledge, this may be the first documented case of rhinofacial conidiobolomycosis in the Philippines.</p>

Granuloma faciale: a good therapeutic response with the use of topical tacrolimus

AbstractGranuloma faciale is a rare dermatosis of chronic course, benign, usually asymptomatic, first described in 1945 by Wingley. It is characterized by the appearance of well-defined, single or multiple papules, plaques and nodules, predominantly located in sun-exposed areas, especially the face. In this work we report the case of a female patient, 58 years old, evolving for ten years with multiple erythematous-brownish and asymptomatic papules on the face, whose histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of granuloma faciale. The patient was treated with topical tacrolimus, evolving with regression of lesions.

Rapid Growing Eosinophilic Granuloma in Skull after Minor Trauma / 대한신경손상학회지

The authors present a case of rapidly progressing eosinophilic granuloma (EG) of the skull without hemorrhage after minor trauma. A 6-year-old boy presented with a soft mass on the midline of his forehead. He had a surgery for EG 19 months ago. One month earlier, computed tomography (CT) and bone scans were performed to evaluate the possible recurrence of EG, and there was no evidence of recurrence in CT. However, a slightly increased uptake in the bone scan was noted on the midline of the forehead. A rapid growing mass developed in a new spot after a minor trauma 7 days before the patient arrived at the clinic. His physical examination was unremarkable, except for a non-tender, soft, and immobile mass. A plain skull X-ray and CT showed a lytic bony defect on the midline of the frontal bone. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a 1.4 cm sized enhancing mass. Surgical resection and cranioplasty were done. The role of trauma in the development of EG is unclear. However, our case suggests that minor trauma is an aggravating factor for EG formation. Careful observation with regular follow-up is necessary in patients with EG after minor trauma.

Atypical histiocytic granuloma: A differential to nonhealing ulcers of the oral cavity.

This is a case report of a rare clinical entity known as atypical histiocytic granuloma (AHG), which was previously grouped under a broad category known as pseudolymphoma or traumatic eosinophilic granuloma. Less than 15 cases of AHG have been reported until date. AHG poses diagnostic dilemma due to its clinical as well as histopathological appearance where it stimulates malignancy. A proper clinicopathological evaluation is necessary to establish the diagnosis and to avoid overtreatment. In this report, we review previously reported cases in literature and try to establish proper clinicopathological correlation, differential diagnosis and management. These will familiarize clinicians to include AHG in their differential diagnosis as well as for the pathologist to segregate pseudolymphomatous lesion in their proper categories. The role of immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been given prime importance to establish the exact diagnosis. Further in this report, we review different status on lymphoproliferative disorders and advocate the use of IHC in categorizing these lesions upon cell lineage and to establish proper nomenclature for these lesions.

Surgical treatment combined with oral administration of indomethacin for eosinophilic granuloma of the skull: report of a pediatric case / 浙江大学学报·医学版

A 13-year-old girl presented headache for 5 d upon admission to hospital. An initial CT revealed 3 lesions located in her skull, the sizes of which were 2.5 cm×3.2 cm,1.2 cm×1.0 cm,0.3 cm×0.3 cm, respectively. The largest lesion was resected by surgery and confirmed as eosinophilic granuloma by pathology. After surgery, she took oral indomethacin 25 mg b·i·d for 3 months and tolerated it well. CT scan was performed 3 months and 1 year later, and the results showed that the unresected lesions shrank progressively and the defected bones were regenerated and healed one year later after operation.

The clinical manifestation was painless mass in the parotid gland. Physical examination showed regional swelling in parotid area. Bultrasound examination demonstrated the mass was an hypoechoic nodules of bilateral parotid gland, the border was vague. Absolute value and ratio of peripheral eosinophils were both significantly increased. Pathological examination: parotid eosinophilic lymphogranuloma.

Chronic gastric anisakiasis provoking a bleeding gastric ulcer

Gastric anisakiasis is a parasitic disease caused by the gastric mucosal penetration of the Anisakis larvae ingested with raw fish. Acute gastric anisakiasis is diagnosed by the endoscopic visualization of Anisakis larvae along with mucosal edema, erythema, hemorrhage, and/or an ulcer, whereas chronic anisakiasis is often observed as a localized tumor commonly occurring in the submucosal layer, and is characterized by eosinophilic granuloma with edema and embedded Anisakis larvae on pathological examination of surgical specimens. We report here a case of chronic gastric anisakiasis provoking a bleeding gastric ulcer, which is a rare clinical manifestation of this condition.

Treatment Outcome of Langerhans Cell Histocytosis / 대한골관절종양학회지

PURPOSE: To analyze the clinical features and treatment outcome of Langerhans' cell histocytosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From August 1996 to June 2013, 28 patients who histologically proven with LCH were analyzed of medical records, radiography, pathologic character retrospectively. RESULTS: A total of 28 cases of LCH including 22 child has been reported. Onset age was 0.6 to 51 years old, occurred in the average age was 14.8 years. Follow-up period was 6 months to 134 months average was 44.6 months. The M:F ratio was 2.5:1. The initial symptoms was pain in 18 cases, 5 cases of pathologic fracture, 3 case of palpable mass, 1 case of discovered by accident in radiography, 1 case of torticollis. In radiological examination osteolysis was seen all cases, 7 cases showed a periosteal reaction, 1 case showed soft tissue extension. Clinical type of all cases were eosinophilic granuloma. 25 cases were classified as unifocal disease and 3 cases were multifocal single systemic diseases. In all cases, incisional biopsy was performed. After histologic confirmed, 14 cases was treated with curettage or surgical excision of the lesion and the other 14 cases were followed up without treatment. There is no death during follow up period. 11 cases has no radiological improvement after 3-6 months observation, intralesional steroid injection was performed. CONCLUSION: Patients with LCH who has rapid systemic onset is very rare, so if you meet the young children who suspected LCH, you shoulder avoid the examination which cause excessive radiation exposure to the young patient. In order to confirm the diagnosis of disease, biopsy is needed. Close observation after confirmed by histological method will bring the satisfactory results. But the patients who had pathologic fracture or wide bone destruction already may need curettage and bone grafting to lesion or internal fixation. The lesion which has no radiological improvement after 3-6 months observation or appear with pain interferes daily life may need local steroid injection as a good treatment.

Granuloma faciale: a rare disease from a dermoscopy perspective / Granuloma facial: uma doenca rara sob uma perspectiva dermatoscopica

The granuloma faciale is a rare and benign skin disease of unknown etiology, characterized by chronic leukocitoclastic vasculitis. It is characterized by skin lesions predominantly facial whose course is chronic and slowly progressive. The diagnosis is based on clinical features, histopathology and, more recently, in dermoscopy. We describe the case of a male patient, 40 years old, with a sarcoid lesion on the malar site, whose histopathological examination revealed a mixed inflammatory infiltrate with presence of Grenz zone. Dermoscopy revealed a pink background with white striations. The definitive diagnosis is made by histopathologic evaluation, and dermatoscopy can be helpful. It is known to be resistant to therapy, oral medications, intralesional and surgical procedures are options.

O granuloma facial é doença cutânea rara e benigna, de etiologia desconhecida, caracterizado por vasculite leucocitoclástica crônica. Caracteriza-se por lesões cutâneas predominantemente faciais, tem curso crônico e lentamente progressivo. O diagnóstico é baseado na clínica, histopatologia e, mais recentemente, na dermatoscopia. Relatamos o quadro de um paciente masculino, 40 anos de idade, com lesão sarcoídea na face malar, cujo exame histopatológico revelou infiltrado inflamatório misto com presença de zona de Grenz. A dermatoscopia revelou um fundo rosado com estrias brancas. O diagnóstico definitivo é feito pela avaliação histopatológica, sendo que a dermatoscopia pode ser útil. É conhecida por ser resistente à terapêutica, sendo propostas medicações orais, intralesionais e procedimentos cirúrgicos.

Focal Inflammatory Lesions of the Liver / 대한내과학회지

Focal inflammatory lesions are benign lesions of various etiology reported in numerous anatomic sites. Because of the development of imaging study, most of focal inflammatory lesions were noted incidentally without symptom and sign. Among them, eosinophilic liver disease and inflammatory pseudotumor are relatively important diseases and are associated with a variety of other disease such as parasitic infestations, bacterial and viral infection, allergic conditions, autoimmune disease, and internal malignancies. These are largely self-limiting entities and have favorable prognosis. The terminology of eosinophilic liver disease is not strictly defined and a variety of terms, including focal eosinophilic infiltration, eosinophilic abscess, and eosinophilic granuloma exist histologically. Inflammatory pseudotumor was composed of diffuse infiltration of spindle-shaped cells, myofibroblasts, and mixed inflammatory cells (plasma cells, lymphocytes, and histiocytes), microscopically. Focal inflammatory lesions are difficult to differentiate clinically from malignant tumors, because these show variable imaging findings. Thus, it is important to preoperatively distinguish these lesions from malignancy. Meticulous liver biopsy is frequently needed to make differential diagnosis from malignant tumors and to avoid unnecessary resection.

Primary Eosinophilic Granuloma of Adult Cervical Spine Presenting as a Radiculomyelopathy

We report a case of 29-year-old man diagnosed as a primary eosinophilic granuloma (EG) lesion of the seventh cervical vertebra. He had paresthesia on both arms, and grasping weakness for 10 days. Cervical magnetic resonance image (MRI) showed an enhancing mass with ventral epidural bulging and cord compression on the seventh cervical vertebra. Additionally, we performed spine series MRI, bone scan and positive emission tomography for confirmation of other bone lesions. These studies showed no other pathological lesions. He underwent anterior cervical corpectomy of the seventh cervical vertebra and plate fixation with iliac bone graft. After surgical management, neurological symptoms were much improved. Histopathologic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of EG. There was no evidence of tumor recurrence at 12 months postoperative cervical MRI follow-up. We reported symptomatic primary EG of cervical spine successfully treated with surgical resection.

Eosinophilic granuloma in the anterior mandible mimicking radicular cyst

Eosinophilic granuloma is a common expression of Langerhans cell histiocytosis and corresponds with typical bone lesions. The radiographic appearance of eosinophilic granuloma in the jaw is variable and not specific. It may resemble periodontitis, radicular cyst, or malignancies. The purpose of this report is to describe the characteristic radiographic features of eosinophilic granuloma of a 39-year-old male. The lesion in the anterior mandible was first diagnosed as radicular cyst because the radiographic findings were ovoid radiolucent lesion with well-defined border. However, careful interpretation revealed a non-corticated border and floating tooth appearance that were the characteristic radiographic features for the differential diagnosis. Early clinical signs of eosinophilic granuloma can occur in the jaw and a bony destructive lesion might be mistaken for periodontitis or an odontogenic cystic lesion; therefore, careful interpretation of radiographs should be emphasized.

Pythium insidiosum: morphological and molecular identification of Brazilian isolates / Pythium insidiosum: identificação morfológica e molecular de isolados brasileiros

Pythium insidiosum is an oomycete belonging to the kingdom Stramenipila and it is the etiologic agent of pythiosis. Pythiosis is a life-threatening infectious disease characterized by the development of chronic lesions on cutaneous and subcutaneous, intestinal, and bone tissues in humans and many species of animals. The identification of P. insidiosum is important in order to implement a rapid and definitive diagnosis and an effective treatment. This study reports the identification of 54 isolates of P. insidiosum of horses, dogs and sheep that presented suspicious clinical lesions of pythiosis from different regions in Brazil, by using morphological and molecular assays. Throughout the PCR it was possible to confirm the identity of all Brazilian isolates as being P. insidiosum.

Pythium insidiosum é um oomiceto pertencente ao Reino Stramenopila e agente etiológico da pitiose, uma doença infecciosa com riscos de morte. A pitiose é caracterizada pelo desenvolvimento de lesões crônicas sobre os tecidos cutâneos, subcutâneas, intestinal e ósseo em humanos e muitas espécies de animais. A identificação de P. insidiosum é importante, a fim de se obter um diagnóstico rápido e definitivo, bem como um tratamento eficaz. Este estudo relata a identificação de 54 isolados de P. insidiosum de cavalos, cães e ovelhas que apresentavam lesões compatíveis e suspeita clínicas de pitiose, provenientes de diferentes regiões do Brasil, através de métodos morfológicos e moleculares. Através da PCR foi possível confirmar a identidade de todos os isolados brasileiros como sendo P. insidiosum.

Granuloma eosinofílico da coluna vertebral cervical em criança / Eosinophilic granuloma of the cervical spine in children

Granuloma eosinofílico (GE) refere-se à forma benigna e mais frequente de histiocitose de células de Langerhans. Trata-se de uma doença que acomete principalmente crianças e adolescentes, sendo rara a sua ocorrência em adultos. Constitui a forma localizada de proliferação de histiócitos em crânio e ossos longos. O acometimento vertebral é incomum, sendo a localização cervical a menos descrita. Neste artigo, é descrito um caso de uma criança de 7 anos de idade com GE na coluna vertebral cervical com compressão medular. A criança evoluiu com regressão dos sintomas após tratamento conservador, tendo permanecido assintomática ao longo de seguimento de dois anos.

Eosinophilic granuloma (EG) is a benign and more frequent form of Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Children and adolescent are mainly affected, being rare in adults. There is local proliferation of histiocytes in skull and long bones. Vertebral involvement is uncommon, especially at the cervical local. In this paper, we describe a case of a 7 years old child with EG in the cervical spine with spinal cord compression. The patient presented with regression of symptoms after conservative treatment and remained asymptomatic at the two years follow-up.

Granuloma eosinófilo craneal solitario: caso clínico / Solitary eosinophilic granuloma of the skull: a clinic case

La histiocitosis de las células de Langerhan (HCL), es una enfermedad Granulomatosa de etiología no bien precisada todavía, la cual puede tener diferentes manifestaciones y localizaciones,1 aunque algunos la consideran una proliferación neoplásica de las células de Langerhan que aparecen en el escenario de sitios nodulares o no.2 La Histiocytosis X incluye tres componentes: El Granuloma Eosinófilo, la enfermedad de Hand-Schüller-Christian y el síndrome de Letterer-Siwe.5 El Granuloma Eosinófilo es un tumor óseo benigno muy raro, que se presenta en más del 90 por ciento de los casos en niños menores de 10 años, 6 teniendo además cierta predilección por el sexo masculino. Esta lesión es usualmente encontrada en los huesos largos y planos. Se trata de una paciente femenina de 50 años de edad con antecedentes de procesos alérgicos y asma bronquial grado II y fumadora inveterada, que hacía 8 meses, previo a su ingreso, había comenzado a presentar cefalea holocraneal, fue notando irregularidades en su cuero cabelludo y fue hospitalizada porque al realizarle una radiografía simple de cráneo se evidenció una imagen radiotransparente de bordes mal definidos, lo que fue constatado por tomografía simple de cráneo, la paciente fue operada, realizándole una craniectomía y excéresis de un tejido Granulomatoso sobre la duramadre con colocación de injerto de cemento quirúrgico en el área de la craniectomía. Se le diagnosticó un Granuloma Eosinófilo. Posterior a su recuperación fue tratada con oncología donde se le aplicó radioterapia. La evolución de la paciente fue satisfactoria, ahora se encuentra asintomática.

The Langerhans cells hystiocitosis is a Granulomatous ill, it has unknown etiology today. This disease can be many places and clinical manifestations, although some authors consider it a neoplasic proliferation of the Langerhans cells which can be on nodular region scenery or not. X Hystiocitosis include three diseases: Eosinophilic Granuloma, Hand-Schuller- Chritian disease and Letterer-Siwe syndrome. Eosinophilic Granuloma is a very uncommon benign bone tumor, which may be present in more than 90 percent in childhood under 10 years old. They have predominance on male patients. Usually it is found on long and flat bones. The case report is about 50 years old, female patient, with allergic history and bronchial asthma II degree, she come to the hospital because she don’t filled well since 8 months ago and she complained mild headache, furthermore she noticed irregularity over her skull, on vertex region, at her admission she was screening with cranial X ray, where was found a radio lucid images over the painful area, moreover it had irregular edge whit more than 10 cm long. After that she was screening on CT-scan, where was found a very large osteolytic lesion without intracranial grow. She was approached with craniectomy and graft of surgical cement. She was diagnosed Eosinophilic Granuloma on pathologic department. After her discharge she was treated by oncology, here she received holocraneal radiotherapy. Her outcome has been satisfactory because she is asymptomatic and her CT-scan showed not evidences of recidivism.
