Objective: We aimed to evaluate the performance of endometrial cancer (EC) molecular classification in predicting extrauterine disease after primary surgery alone and in combination with other clinical data available in preoperative setting.

Methods: Retrospective single-center observational study including patients with endometrial adenocarcinoma treated with primary surgery between December 1994 and May 2022. Molecular profiling was performed using immunohistochemistry of p53, MLH1, PMS2, MSH2 and MSH6; and KASP genotyping of the 6 most common mutations of POLE gene.

Introduction: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare systemic disease characterized by the abnormal overproduction of histiocytes that tend to infiltrate single or multiple organ systems leading to significant tissue damage. Although LCH can involve various organs including bone, skin, and lymph nodes, multisystem involvement of LCH is rare in adults.

Case Presentation: We report the case of a 31-year-old man with LCH involving his lungs and bone.
