dc.description.abstractJuvenile xanthogranuloma is an uncommon non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis of infancy and childhood. Etiology is not clear. This benign disorder characterized by solitary or multiple yellow-red papulonodules on the skin can occasionally be observed in other organs. They generally appear as reddish-yellow papules which enlarge up to 1 cm in diameter and evolve into yellow-brown plaques and macules. Prognosis is good and lesions mostly improve spontaneously. In this paper, an eleven-month-old boy who admitted with a nodule on the scalp is presented. The possible systemic organ involvement and accompanying diseases were evaluated. No treatment was performed and regular follow-up was planned. Since the lesion did not regress spontaneously during the three months and caused discomfort, total excision was performed. Diagnosis of JXG was confirmed histopathologically. Copyright © 2010 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
