LCH variants
LCH variants, or Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis variants, refer to different forms of a rare condition that involves an abnormal proliferation of Langerhans cells, which are a type of white blood cell. The primary forms are unifocal (affecting one area, like bone), multifocal (affecting multiple areas), and systemic (affecting multiple organs). Symptoms can range from bone pain and skin lesions to more serious issues if internal organs are involved. Treatment varies based on the variant and severity and may include medications, surgery, or monitoring. Understanding these variants is crucial for proper diagnosis and management.
