Abstract
A case of adult cutaneous eruptive histiocytoma is reported. The lesions showed self-healing capacity in a 9-year period. Electron microscopic studies revealed comma-shaped bodies and multiple melahosomes in the cytoplasm of some cells. Normolipemic xanthelasma was present, and the patient had polyclonal gammopathy and hypocomple-mentemia. Resolution of the lesions produced pigmented atrophic macules. Generalized eruptive histiocytoma and benign cephalic histiocytosis could be forms of the same non-X histiocytosis.
