Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University, Jinan, China.
Purpose: To retrospectively evaluate the clinical features and prognostic factors of pediatric LCH patients treated in a single center of China.
Methods: Pediatric LCH cases were treated following the SD-LCH protocol at the Affiliated Provincial Hospital of Shandong First Medical University in Jinan, China. An analysis was conducted on 82 recently identified LCH cases to retrospectively evaluate the initial symptoms, therapeutic alternatives, and extended results.

Histiocytic disorders include a range of uncommon illnesses marked by the buildup of cells that have developed into macrophages, dendritic cells, or monocytes in diverse tissues and organs. Over 100 distinct subtypes have been documented, exhibiting a diverse array of clinical symptoms, presentations, and histologic features that can be confused with other clinical conditions leading to delayed diagnosis. They affect both children and adults, generating a variety of clinical symptoms that can be limited to one position, numerous areas within one system, or affect many systems in the body.

Department of Ultrasound Medicine, First Affiliated Hospital, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, 350005, China.
Background: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disease, most prevalent in children. Ultrasound is a noninvasive, cheap, and widely available technique. However, systematic elucidation of sonographic features of LCH and treatment related follow-up are relatively few, resulting in overall underestimation of the clinical value of ultrasound in diagnosing and monitoring LCH.

Eosinophilia is a notable feature in various hematological malignancies, including specific types of leukemias and lymphomas that may occur in the head and neck. In hematologic malignancies, eosinophilia can be primary, driven by genetic abnormalities, or secondary, resulting from cytokine and chemokine production by the neoplastic cells or the tumor microenvironment. This review examines the association between eosinophilia and head and neck hematolymphoid malignancies including Classic Hodgkin lymphoma, T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia, mature T and NK-cell lymphomas, and Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
