Abstract

A 4-year-old boy with skin symptoms resembling verruca plana juvenile was observed. The light- and electron-microscopic picture showed the typical features of histiocytosis X (Letterer-Siwe syndrome). Beside the skin manifestations some less dense areas in the skull bones were found by X-ray examination. Vinblastine and prednisolone treatment for one year resulted in complete remission.
