Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma (MCAH) is a rare benign cutaneous entity. It classically presents as slowly progressive erythematous to violaceous papules on the distal extremities of middle-aged or elderly women. The entity may clinically resemble granuloma annulare, lichen planus, and several cutaneous vascular proliferations.

Canine cutaneous histiocytoma (CCH) is a tumor that originates from dermal Langerhans cells and affects particularly young dogs. The common spontaneous regression of CCH makes it an interesting model in comparative oncology research. Previous studies have indicated that anti-tumor immune responses may be involved, but details remain speculative to date.

Background: Solitary epithelioid histiocytoma, also known as reticulohistiocytoma, is a rare benign histiocytic proliferation with an unreported incidence that commonly presents as a superficial nodule involving the trunk and extremities of adults. Pathology shows dermal histiocytic infiltration composed of large, eosinophilic histiocytes with "glassy" cytoplasm and oncocytic macrophages. When presenting as part of a systemic disorder, it is called multicentric reticulohistiocytosis, a rare and more aggressive condition characterized by multiple skin and mucosal lesions and arthritis.
