Abstract
Two cases of Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) expressing as Hand-Schuller-Christian syndrome with diabetes insipidus, hyperprolactinemia and empty sella are here reported. Up-to-date this four-fold association is lacking in world literature and it is here discussed in the light if LCH is a cancer or the clinical expression of an immunologic disorder.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
