Article Synopsis
- Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare condition affecting the central nervous system, with spinal RDD being extremely uncommon and often leading to neurological issues.
- A systematic review identified 53 cases of isolated spinal RDD, with a majority of patients presenting neurological deficits and lesions primarily found in the thoracic region.
- Treatment typically involves surgery, with additional therapies like chemotherapy and radiotherapy considered for cases with partial improvement; recurrence was noted in 15% of patients during a follow-up period.
