Rosai dorfman disease of the orbit.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To report the clinico-histopathologic features, management and outcome of Rosai-Dorfman disease of the orbit.

Design

Non-comparative case series.

Results

Rosai-Dorfman disease of the orbit constituted 0.09% of all ocular specimens received at our Institute, presenting with a firm rubbery mass causing proptosis; bilateral in 4 (57%) cases. The median age at presentation was 13 years (range 5-65); median duration of symptoms was 6 (range 3-15) years. Lymphadenopathy was noted in 4 (57%); extranodal involvement in 3 (43%). After biopsy, 3 cases were treated with systemic corticosteroids, 2 cases developed local recurrence that responded to systemic corticosteroid therapy. Polymorphous population of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and characteristic S-100-positive histiocytes showing emperipolesis were pathognomonic histologic features.

Conclusion

Rosai-Dorfman disease of the orbit, although rare, should be considered in young individuals with chronic proptosis with rubbery masses. Excision and corticosteroid therapy provide a favorable outcome.

Clinicopathological features, treatment approaches, and outcomes in Rosai-Dorfman disease.

Project description:Rosai-Dorfman disease is a rare subtype of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. With the last major report published in 1990, there is a paucity of contemporary data on this disease. Our objective was to report the clinicopathological features, treatments and outcomes of patients seen at a tertiary referral center. Sixty-four patients with histopathological diagnosis of Rosai-Dorfman disease were identified from 1994 to 2017 (median age 50 years; range, 2-79). The median duration from symptom onset to diagnosis was seven months (range, 0-128), which was also reflected in the number of biopsies required to establish the diagnosis (median 2; range, 1-6). The most common presentation was subcutaneous masses (40%). Of the 64 patients, 8% had classical (nodal only) and 92% had extra-nodal disease (67% extra-nodal only). The most common organs involved were skin and subcutaneous tissue (52%), followed by lymph nodes (33%). Three patients had an overlap with Erdheim-Chester disease, which had not been described before. Two of these were found to have MAP2K1 mutations. Commonly utilized first line treatments were surgical excision (38%) and systemic corticosteroids (27%). Corticosteroids led to a response in 56% of the cases. Of those treated initially, 15 (30%) patients developed recurrent disease. The most commonly used systemic agent was cladribine (n=6), with 67% overall response rate. Our study demonstrates that Rosai-Dorfman disease has diverse clinical manifestations and outcomes. While this disease has been historically considered a benign entity, a subset of patients endures an aggressive course necessitating the use of systemic therapies.

A fatal case of Rosai-Dorfman disease.

Project description:As Rosai-Dorfman Disease presents generally nonspecific symptoms, differential diagnosis can be of great learning curve for physicians. Additionally, RDD does not usually threaten life and spontaneous remission is frequently observed. However, unusually in our case the patient passed away within 1 month of confirmed diagnosis.

No increase in IgG4-positive plasma cells in limbal Rosai-Dorfman disease.

Project description:Extranodal Rosai-Dorfman disease is a rare benign condition recently reported to sometimes show features of IgG4-related disease. The purpose of this study was to describe the corneal-limbal manifestation of the entity and to investigate whether numerous IgG4-positive plasma cells are associated with the disease at this site.This is an interventional retrospective small case series.Two patients presenting with painless limbal mass lesions underwent total excisional biopsy with anterior lamellar keratoplasty for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Histopathologic evaluation of the specimens revealed inflammatory lesions containing atypical S100-immunoreactive histiocytes diagnostic of Rosai-Dorfman disease, but not an increase in the IgG4-positive plasma cells. Point mutations (V600E) in the BRAF oncogene were absent.Rosai-Dorfmann disease should be considered in the differential diagnosis of limbal mass lesions. Involvement at this site was not associated with BRAF mutation or IgG4 abnormalities in the cases examined.

Rosai-Dorfman-Destombes disease of the nervous system: a systematic literature review.

Project description:BackgroundRosai-Dorfman-Destombes disease (RDD) is a rare histiocytic disorder with heterogeneous clinical manifestations and rare neurologic involvement. The existing clinical literature about neurologic RDD has yet to be critically examined.MethodsWe performed a four-database English-language systematic literature search for cases of RDD neurohistiocytosis, excluding secondary literature. Individual patient data for neurologic symptoms, disease sites, treatments, and responses were captured. Responses to first-line and second-line surgical interventions, post-surgical radiotherapy, and systemic therapies were analyzed.ResultsAmong 4769 articles yielded by literature search, 154 articles were fully reviewed, containing data on 224 patients with neurologic RDD. 128 (83.1%) articles were single case reports. 149 (66.5%) patients were male, 74 (33.5%) female, with a median age of 37.6 years (range 2-79). Presenting neurologic symptoms included headache (45.1%), focal neurological deficits (32.6%), visual symptoms (32.1%), and seizures (24.6%). RDD involvement was multifocal in 32 (14.3%) cases. First-line treatment involved resection in 200 (89.6%) patients, with subsequent progression in 52 (26%), including 41 (78.8%) with unifocal disease. No difference was observed in progression-free survival comparing post-operative radiotherapy to no radiotherapy following partial resection. Chemotherapy given alone as first-line treatment led to complete or partial response in 3/7(43%) patients. Second-line treatments led to complete or partial response in 18/37(37.5%) patients. Mutational data were reported on 10 patients (4.46%).ConclusionsThis review highlights the limited published data about neurologic RDD, which presents with varied symptomatology and outcome. Further study is needed about its mutational landscape, and more effective therapies are needed for recurrent and refractory disease.

Consensus recommendations for the diagnosis and clinical management of Rosai-Dorfman-Destombes disease.

Project description:Rosai-Dorfman-Destombes disease (RDD) is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis characterized by accumulation of activated histiocytes within affected tissues. RDD, which now belongs to the R group of the 2016 revised histiocytosis classification, is a widely heterogeneous entity with a range of clinical phenotypes occurring in isolation or in association with autoimmune or malignant diseases. Recent studies have found NRAS, KRAS, MAP2K1, and ARAF mutations in lesional tissues, raising the possibility of a clonal origin in some forms of RDD. More than 1000 reports have been published in the English literature; however, there is a lack of consensus regarding approach for the clinical management of RDD. Although in most cases RDD can be observed or treated with local therapies, some patients with refractory or multifocal disease experience morbidity and mortality. Here we provide the first consensus multidisciplinary recommendations for the diagnosis and management of RDD. These recommendations were discussed at the 32nd Histiocyte Society Meeting by an international group of academic clinicians and pathologists with expertise in RDD. We include guidelines for clinical, laboratory, pathologic, and radiographic evaluation of patients with RDD together with treatment recommendations based on clinical experience and review of the literature.

Bone Involvement in Rosai-Dorfman Disease (RDD): a Case Report and Systematic Literature Review.

Project description:Purpose of reviewRosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare histiocytic disorder typically presenting as painless cervical lymphadenopathy. Extranodal involvement is common and may also affect bones. Here, we present a patient with typical nodal disease and multifocal bone manifestations. Further, a systematic literature review was performed to better understand the phenotype, clinical course and treatment options of such patients.Recent findingsRDD is a nonmalignant, classically sporadic histiocytosis. Nevertheless, increasing evidence also suggests familial forms of the disease. According to our literature review, bone involvement is exceedingly rare and heterogeneous. Clinical outcome in terms of mortality seems to be favorable in most cases. Currently, therapy strategies include surgical and immunosuppressive treatments, but the optimal treatment of osseous RDD remains to be defined. Patients with osseous RDD may present to rheumatologists with arthralgia or arthritis. Due to the rarity of the disease, diagnosis and treatment remain challenging.

Diagnosis and treatment of Rosai-Dorfman disease of the spine: a systematic literature review.

Project description:PurposeTo review and summarize the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment strategies, and prognosis of spinal Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD).MethodsRDD is also termed as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy. We searched the databases of PubMed, Elsevier ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and OVID. The keywords were Rosai-Dorfman disease and spine/central nervous system. Research articles and case reports with accessibility to full texts regarding spinal RDD were eligible for the inclusion. A total of 62 articles were included, and they contained 69 cases. We extracted the information of interest and analyzed them using SPSS statistics package.ResultsThe average age was 33.1 ± 18.3 years. The ratio of males to females was 1.9/1. Overall, 63 cases presented with spine-related symptoms. A total of 27 cases (39.1%) had multi-organ lesions, and 12 cases had records of massive lymphadenopathy. Among 47 cases who first manifested spine-related symptoms, 93.6% were preoperatively misdiagnosed. The disease had a predilection for cervical spine (38.8%) and thoracic spine (40.3%). 62.9% of lesions were dura-based. Surgery remained the mainstream treatment option (78.8%), with or without adjuvant therapies. Total lesion resection was achieved in 34.8% of cases. The rate of lesion recurrence/progression was 19.5%, which was marginally lower for total resection than for non-total resection.ConclusionSpinal RDD has no pathognomonic clinical and imaging features. Most cases first present with spine-relevant symptoms. Massive lymphadenopathy is not common, but a tendency for multi-organ involvement should be considered. Spinal RDD has a high recurrence rate; thus, total resection is the treatment of choice. Adjuvant therapies are indicated for multi-organ lesions and residual lesions. A wait and watch strategy is recommended for asymptomatic patients. Herein, a workflow of diagnosis and treatment of the spinal RDD is established.
