Background: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a benign lymphoproliferatif disorder characterized by cervical lymphadenopathies with a consistent risk of airways' compression and esthetical prejudice. Extra nodal localizations are also described.
Aim: To report two pediatric cases of RDD.
Cases: the first case concerned a patient with a prolonged nodal involvement of RDD. Remission seems to be natural although it coincided with a sulfaméthoxazole- triméthoprime therapy. The second case illustrated an extranodal form of RDD localized in soft tissue and paranasal sinus with extension to nasal cavity which were corticodependant.
Conclusion: RDD is usually a benign disorder. Particular localizations, lack of effective therapy and the high risk of recurrence are important issues in this rare affection.

Background: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), or sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML), is a rare benign disorder characterized by the proliferation of histiocytes of uncertain origin. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement, particularly intraventricular, is exceptionally rare and poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its non-specific clinical and radiographic presentation. This study aims to present a case of intraventricular RDD and review existing literature on its clinical features, treatment strategies, and prognosis.
