[Histiocytosis of Rosai-Dorfman-Destombes extranodal of the jawbone: Report of a case and review of the literature].

Rosai-Dorfman-Destombes histiocytosis is a rare histiocytosis characterized by an accumulation of histiocytes within the tissues. It is a heterogeneous entity with various clinical phenotypes: isolated lymph nodes, in association with extranodal involvement, autoimmune disease or neoplasm. These extra nodal lesions mainly affect the skin, the nasal cavity, orofacial sinuses, or are lytic bone lesions or even damage to the central nervous system. The diagnosis is histopathological. We present here the case of a histiocytosis of Rosai-Dorfman-Destombes in a 46-year-old patient with a lesion of the left palate. Our observation discuss the diagnostic hypotheses in front of a lytic lesion of the ENT sphere predominantly histiocytic.
