Abstract
Multicentric reticulohistiocytosis (MRH) is the most frequently described form of reticulohistiocytosis (RH), and it is classified as a class IIb non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. It has been designated as multicentric, being characterized by multisystemic involvement. In fact, although mainly involving the skin, along with the joints, it is a systemic inflammatory condition potentially involving every internal organ. As MRH-related skin findings can mimic rheumatoid nodules or Gottron papules, the histopathology of the cutaneous lesions is often necessary for the correct diagnosis. Approximately one-third of MRH patients have confirmed concomitant autoimmune disorders. A wide variety of autoimmune disorders associated with the disease have been reported in the literature, suggesting immune dysfunction as a factor in the pathophysiology of MRH. A case of MRH associated with autoimmune manifestation is reported in the context of a mini review of the literature, with a focus on clinical presentation, treatments, and treatment outcomes. Moreover, eight cases of MRH associated with autoimmune diseases are briefly discussed.
