Histiocytosis are caused by pathogenic myeloid cells, and can be classified as Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) and non-LCH. Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a non-LCH, characterized by multi-organ involvement, typical imaging findings, and confirmatory histological studies. A case with multi-organ involvement and histological confirmation is presented.

Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is an extremely rare non-Langerhans cell disorder that is believed to include both inflammatory and neoplastic characteristics. It is caused due to genetic mutations in proto-oncogenes like BRAF and MEK, while immunological pathways have an essential role in the onset and progression of the disease. Despite its rarity, ECD poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its heterogeneous clinical presentation and limited understanding of its underlying pathophysiology.

Dysfunction of the endo-lysosomal intracellular Cholesterol transporter 2 protein (NPC2) leads to the onset of Niemann-Pick Disease Type C (NPC), a lysosomal storage disorder. Metabolic and homeostatic mechanisms are disrupted in lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) hence we characterized a cellular model of NPC2 knock out, to assess alterations in organellar function and inter-organellar crosstalk between mitochondria and lysosomes. We performed characterization of lipid alterations and confirmed altered lysosomal morphology, but no overt changes in oxidative stress markers.
