Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis

Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder characterized by the abnormal proliferation and ac****ulation of Langerhans cells, a type of immune cell, in various tissues of the body. Langerhans cells are normally found in the skin and other mucosal tissues, where they play a role in the immune system.

LCH can affect people of all ages, but it most commonly occurs in children and young adults. The exact cause of LCH is unknown, but it is thought to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
