Pediatric orbital Rosai-Dorfman disease : An unusual case

Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved..

INTRODUCTION: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy. This rare condition is a benign disease of unknown etiology. Bilateral orbital localization of RDD is rare.

OBSERVATION: The authors report the case of a 6-year-old child who presented with bilateral orbital-palpebral masses associated with chronic cervical lymphadenopathy. There were no laboratory signs of inflammation. Serological and tuberculosis screening tests were negative. Histopathological examination of a lymph node biopsy established a diagnosis of Rosai-Dorfman disease. The patient underwent surgical excision of the orbital lesions followed by long-term corticosteroid therapy. A favorable course was observed, with no sign of recurrence after one year of follow-up.

CONCLUSION: Rosai-Dorfman disease is very rare in its bilateral orbital presentation. Histopathological diagnosis remains challenging. In Africa, the presence of chronic oculo-palpebral tumor associated with or without cervical lymphadenopathy must raise the suspicion of Rosai-Dorfman disease after ruling out tuberculosis and lymphoma.
