We describe a female patient with RDD clinically limited to the skin. The patient presented with asymptomatic red brown papules and nodules on the legs, arms, Back and nose. Histologically the lesions consisted of a proliferation of large histiocytes occasionally showing emperipolesis. Histiocytes were also observed within dilated lymphatic vessels. Immunohistochemical study showed that histiocytes expressed S-l protein and both macrophage and tonicity markers. All lesions resolved completely with Roentgen therapy. No recurrence has been observed over a 3-year follow-up period. Citing Literature Volume134, Issue4April 1996Pages 749-753 RelatedInformation
