SummarySinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy is a rare, benign lympho-proliferative disorder of unknown aetiology that chiefly affects the cervical lymphnodes of children. Various extranodal manifestations are recognized, especially in the head and neck. A case is described in a Nigerian child that illustrates problems of differential diagnosis.

Systemic Symptoms

Rosai–Dorman disease, also known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, typically presents as massive enlargement of lymph nodes accompanied by systemic symptoms. Extranodal involvement is also known usually in head and neck regions. Rarely the disease presents at extranodal sites only without involvement of lymph nodes.We present a case of 58 years-old female who presented with mass in nasal septum without involvement of lymph nodes. The mass was removed surgically and diagnosis was made on histological grounds with classical indings of histiocytic proliferation and emperipolesis.

Extranodal Manifestations

Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML), Rosai-Dorfman Disease, is a rare histiocytic syndrome first described by Rosai and Dorfman, most frequently seen in children and young adults.The disease is more common in males and in individuals of African descent but rare in Asians. It is mainly characterized by painless bilateral cervical lymph node enlargement and is often associated with fever and leucocytosis. This case is being reported for its rarity in presentation in an elderly female with both generalized nodal as well as extranodal manifestations. Without the awareness about RDD, the diagnosis of RDD is unexpected especially in South East Asian Countries where certain lymphadenopathies such as tuberculosis, metastatic malignancies and lymphomas are common.

Massive Lymphadenopathy

Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy is a lymphoreticular disorder of obscure pathogenesis with extranodal lesions and a variable clinical course. Clinical manifestations are most often in the head and neck, with 97% of patients showing cervical lymphadenopathy and a significant but lesser number having lesional infiltrates in the upper aerodigestive tracts, particularly the nasal cavity and salivary glands.
