Abstract
Thetreatment of patients who suffer from a disseminated form of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is still controversial. So far, few larger randomized studies have been performed. The authors present 3 patients with a disseminated form of LCH-4 months, 9 months, and 2 years old, respectively. The lesional Langerhans cells in each patient showed positive immunohistochemical reaction to S-100 protein and the presence of Birbeck granules was confirmed by electron microscopy. All the patients were treated with etoposide (VP-16), 200 mg/m2
