Abstract

Sinus Histiocytosis with Massive Lymphadenopathy, also known as Rosai-Dorfman Disease is a rare histiocytic proliferative disorder of unknown etiology. It presents as massive, bilateral, painless cervical lymphadenopathy. We report a case of RosaiDorfman disease in a 11 year old boy who presented with bilateral painless cervical lymohadenopathy. Only a few such cases have been reported in the literature hence this case is being reported for its rarity.
