Abstract
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare non-malignant disorder, characterized by painless multiple cervical lymphadenopathy, fever, and elevated inflammatory markers. Its diagnosis is difficult due to its rare incidence and various clinical presentations, especially in extranodal involvement. In this report, we demonstrate a patient with RDD who presented with a nasal septum and laryngeal tumor that caused dyspnea. We achieved a successful treatment outcome with combined surgical resection of the laryngeal mass and corticosteroid medication. The symptoms and tumors were resolved within 3 weeks after treatment. We reported our experiences with review of literatures.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of otolaryngological extranodal RDD. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 16 patients who were initially diagnosed and treated with otolaryngological extranodal RDD in our hospital from January 2013 to January 2019. RESULTS There were 9 females and 7 males. The mean diagnostic age was 45.35. Nasal, laryngeal and otic RDD were, respectively, accounting for 56.25%, 31.25% and 12.5%. The median interval diagnostic time was individually 1, 0.5 and 0.2 year for nasal, laryngeal and otic RDD. The most common symptoms were separately progressive nasal congestion, dyspnea, otorrhea in nasal, laryngeal and otic RDD. 13 had cervical lymph node swelling on MRI. Surgery or postoperative radiotherapy were conformed. In the end, 14 patients with RDD survived. The survival rate is as high as 87.5%. One of them died of RDD in the fifth year. One case was lost to follow-up 2 years after treatment. Patients survive for at least 2 years and up to 9 years. There was no significant difference in life expectancy of extranodal RDD among different parts of ENT (P = 0.508 > 0.05). The average ages of laryngeal and nasal RDD were similar (P = 0.898 > 0.05). However, the age of both was significantly higher than ear RDD (P = 0.023 and 0.019 < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The average diagnostic age was more than 20 years. Nasal RDD was the most common in this area. All laryngeal RDD had infiltrated subglottis. Functional surgery and postoperative radiotherapy can be used to achieve long-term remission and survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), is a rare, benign, proliferative, histiocytic disorder characterized by persistent massive lymphadenopathy, which mimics malignant tumors. Diagnosis of extranodal RDD without lymphadenopathy is difficult due to its unusual clinical manifestation and lack of typical histopathologic features. Hence, it requires both a high degree of clinical suspicion and careful histopathologic examination. CASE REPORT A 57-year-old woman presented with an isolated mass on the base of the tongue (BOT) without lymphadenopathy. Laryngoscopic examination revealed a mass on the midline of the BOT. The patient underwent complete surgical excision via suspension laryngoscopy with a CO₂ laser. Based on the histopathologic features, including numerous histiocytic infiltrations with emperipolesis and cytoplasmic expression of S100 and CD68 in histiocytes, the diagnosis was confirmed as extranodal RDD. No further treatment was required, and follow-up evaluation revealed no evidence of recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Because no ideal therapeutic approach is available for RDD, treatment should be tailored to the clinical manifestations. To prevent airway obstruction and recurrence, surgery is considered an appropriate option in cases of localized RDD arising on the upper respiratory tract. We report an extremely rare case of extranodal RDD without lymphadenopathy in the BOT, and provide a detailed discussion of its clinical and histopathologic features and treatment with a brief review of the relevant literature.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare usually self-limited non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis of unknown etiology. Nodal and extranodal RDD appear to represent distinct conditions with different molecular alterations and prognosis. They also pose different diagnostic challenges on biopsies and fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. The aim of this study was to report on 3 cases of intra-abdominal RDD and perform an extensive review of the literature on FNA findings of RDD. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed FNA specimens from cases diagnosed histologically or cytologically as RDD during the past 10 years. We searched the PubMed and Google Scholar databases for cases of RDD sampled by FNA. RESULTS We identified 3 cases of intra-abdominal RDD, involving the kidney, periportal lymph node, and pancreas. FNA of the latter was hypocellular with fibrosis and was nondiagnostic. FNA of the first 2 yielded hypercellular smears that were diagnosed as RDD due to the identification of emperipolesis occurring in large uni- or binucleated histiocytes with large nuclei, fine chromatin, and prominent nucleoli in smears and cell-block sections. Immunohistochemistry showed positive staining for S100 and CD68 and negative staining for CD1a. The large histiocytes with emperipolesis were more difficult to identify histologically and their demonstration required immunohistochemical stains. CONCLUSION Our experience and an extensive review of the literature suggest that extranodal RDD can be diagnosed on FNA, and that the recognition of histiocytes with emperipolesis may be less challenging cytologically than histologically. The fibrosis frequently seen in extranodal RDD may lead to nondiagnostic aspirates, however.

Abstract
A 53-year-old male presented with dropping of the right eyelid associated with decreased visual acuity for 4 months. He also complained of vertical diplopia especially when looking down. Ophthalmological examination revealed right blepharospasm associated with right hypertropia. There was palpable mass at the inferomedial aspect of the right eye. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed abnormal signal intensity in the right orbit inferior aspect occupying the orbital floor and measured 2.7 cm × 2.5 cm × 1.2 cm and showed enhancement on the postcontrast study. The patient underwent complete excision of the tumor. Histological examination of the mass revealed histiocytic proliferation with emperipolesis, with positive S100, positive CD68, and negative CD1a staining. These histological and immunohistochemical features are consistent with extranodal Rosai-Dorfman disease. There was no complication or recurrence after the complete excision.

Abstract
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is an uncommon benign entity characterized histologically by lymphatic sinus dilatation due to histiocyte proliferation. This study was performed to delineate its imaging features, reviewed retrospectively in 12 patients (8 women and 4 men, mean age 58.2 years [range 27-84]) with pathologically confirmed RDD in the head and neck. The location, involvement, and imaging characteristics (CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and PET/CT) of all lesions were evaluated. Signal intensity on MRI images was compared to gray matter (orbital RDD) and adjacent muscle (sinonasal and cervical RDD). RDD in the head and neck involved multiple sites, primarily the sinonasal cavity (n = 7), neck (n = 3), and orbit (n = 1), with one case of simultaneous involvement of the sinonasal cavity, orbit, and neck. With sinonasal involvement, MRI signal intensity of the involved areas was isointense or slightly hyperintense relative to adjacent muscle on T1WI images and heterogeneous on T2WI images; with lacrimal involvement, it was isointense relative to gray matter on T1- and T2-weighted images; and with neck involvement, it was isointense relative to muscle on T1WI images and relatively hyperintense on T2WI images, with homogenous postcontrast enhancement in all sites of involvement. The lesions on CT were observed as enhancing masses with or without bony destruction. PET/CT showed hypermetabolism in one lesion in the neck. RDD is a rare disorder with multiple sites of involvement in the head and neck. Concomitant cervical lymphadenopathy with extranodal masses assisted by multimodal imaging may be useful in the diagnosis of RDD.

Abstract
Cervical lymphadenopathy is a common indication for imaging evaluation of the neck. Besides metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, cervical lymphadenopathy can be due to many causes, with simple reactive lymphadenopathy on one end of the spectrum and malignant lymphadenopathy due to a distant infraclavicular primary, on the other end. A systematic approach to the cause of cervical lymphadenopathy, which includes pattern of lymph node enlargement, lymph node characteristics, systemic symptoms, and extranodal abnormalities, can be very useful in arriving at the correct diagnosis. In this article, various patterns of cervical lymphadenopathy due to non-squamous cell causes are discussed.
