Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is usually identified by Touton giant cells, so their absence can complicate diagnosis. We encountered a case of non-typical neonatal JXG lacking Touton giant cells, which was difficult to differentiate from aleukemic leukemia cutis because of overlapping histopathological characteristics. A 1 month-old girl presented with a blueberry muffin rash and multiple 1-2 cm nodules within the subcutaneous and deeper soft tissues.

CPSs are genetic mutations that increase the risk of developing cancer at an earlier age compared to the risk for the general population. This article aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of three unique cases involving pediatric patients with CPS who were diagnosed with multiple simultaneous or metachronous cancers.
