AI Article Synopsis
- Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is a rare, non-cancerous skin condition mainly affecting children, often resolving on its own without treatment.
- In some cases, like the one discussed in the paper, JXG can appear as a single lesion that may require surgical removal if it causes functional issues.
- The case highlighted involves a child whose JXG lesion on the sole led to delays in walking and bearing weight, prompting the need for surgery.
Article Abstract
Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is a rare, benign non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis that primarily affects the skin, with infrequent extracutaneous manifestations. Lesions typically emerge during early childhood and often resolve spontaneously, obviating the need for treatment. This paper details the case of a child diagnosed with a solitary JXG on the sole, necessitating surgical excision due to its functional impairment, specifically a delay in walking and weight bearing.
