Abstract
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare disorder characterized by excessive growth of histiocytes. We present a case of a 14-year-old female with cutaneous RDD who had a subcutaneous lump on her left arm for three years. The lump became tender and progressively larger over the past year. She had no systemic symptoms, and her physical examination revealed a mobile, tender lump. Laboratory tests were normal. Surgical excision of the lump was performed, and histopathological examination confirmed RDD with the presence of epithelioid histiocytes with eosinophilic and clear cytoplasm, along with emperipolesis and positive staining for CD68, CD163, S100, and OCT2. The patient was referred for follow-up and required no further treatment. RDD can present with subcutaneous masses without systemic symptoms, and it is important to consider RDD in the differential diagnosis of such cases. Surgical excision is the main treatment, and long-term monitoring is necessary due to the potential for disease recurrence. Awareness of cutaneous RDD presentations is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management.
