TLDR
Five patients had a histiocytic, cytophagic panniculitis and a febrile, progressive course, which included hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia, liver function abnormalities, and a hemorrhagic death, and the terminal hemorrhage was characterized by features of intravascular coagulation and liver failure.
Abstract
• Five patients had a histiocytic, cytophagic panniculitis and a febrile, progressive course, which included hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia, liver function abnormalities, and a hemorrhagic death. The terminal hemorrhage was characterized by features of intravascular coagulation and liver failure. The histiocytosis could be found at times also in bone marrow, lymph nodes, liver and spleen, and serosal tissues, as well as in skin and subcutaneous tissue. Adequate biopsy diagnosis will prevent such cases from being labeled as Weber-Christian disease with bleeding, and offer an opportunity for appropriate treatment of this new syndrome of histiocytic, cytophagic panniculitis.

Primary cutaneous lymphomas: applicability of current classification schemes (European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer, World Health Organization) based on clinicopathologic features observed in a large group of patients.

TL;DR: The study confirmed that the EORTC classification allows a better management of patients with PCL and small amendments to that classification should be carried out to account for recently described entities and to unify some of the diagnostic categories.

TL;DR: The clinical records and histologic materials from 29 cases of malignant histiocytosis have been reviewed, as well as autopsy findings in 14 cases, and bone marrow aspiration was superior to biopsy in assessing marrow involvement.

Histiocytic medullary reticulosis. Report of two cases and review of the literature.

TL;DR: Although there are similarities of histiocytic medullary reticulosis to Hodgkin's disease, Letterer-Siwe disease, and lymphomatous diseases, it is thought that histuocytic Medullary ReticULosis is a distinct clinicopathologic type of malignant Histiocytosis.
