Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis involving the central nervous system in 5% of cases. Spinal location occurs in less than 1% of extranodal RDD and can be responsible for neurological manifestations. We present a systematic review of cases of isolated spinal RDD. We also report a new case of isolated spinal RDD revealed by spinal cord compression. MATERIALS AND METHODS The systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guideline using the MEDLINE and SCOPUS databases and included case reports and case series describing isolated RDD of the spine. RESULTS There were 53 patients with isolated spinal RDD (including our case). The mean age was 35.85±16.48 years. Neurological deficit was the most frequent clinical presentation (89%). RDD lesions were mainly located in the thoracic spine (51%), then the cervical spine (32%). The lesion was reported to be extradural (57%), intradural extramedullary (26%), intramedullary (7%), and in the vertebral body (10%). Histological examination showed emperipolesis in 73%. Histocytes were positive for S-100 protein in 83%. Treatment was based on surgery 96%), radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and adjunctive steroid therapy were indicated in four, one, and eight cases. After a mean follow-up period of 14.84±13.00 months, recurrence of RDD was noted in 15%. CONCLUSION Spinal RDD is a rare condition, requiring meticulous histological examination for accurate diagnosis. Complete surgical resection is the treatment of choice. Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy can also be indicated in patients demonstrating partial improvement following surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare, idiopathic, and non-neoplastic histio-proliferative disease that is uncommon in the central nervous system. Hence, reports of management of RDD in the skull base are scarce and only a few studies on skull base RDD are available. The objective of this study was to analyze the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of RDD in the skull base and explore an appropriate treatment strategy thereof. METHODS Nine patients with clinical characteristics and follow-up data from our department between 2017 and 2022 were included in this study. From this information, the clinical profiles, imaging, treatment, and prognosis data were collected. RESULTS There were 6 male and 3 female patients with skull base RDD. These patients ranged in age from 13 to 61 years, with a median age of 41 years. The locations included 1 anterior skull base orbital apex, 1 parasellar region, 2 sellar regions, 1 petroclivus, and 4 foramen magnum regions. Six patients underwent total resection and 3 underwent subtotal resection. Patient follow-up lasted 11-65 months, with a median duration of 24 months. One patient died, 2 experienced recurrence, and the other patients' lesions were stable. The symptoms worsened and new complications occurred in 5 patients. CONCLUSIONS Skull base RDDs are intractable diseases with a high rate of complications. Some patients are at risk of recurrence and death. Surgery may be the basic treatment for this disease, and combined therapy including targeted therapy or radiation therapy may also be a valuable therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Rosai Dorfman Disease (RDD) is a benign histiocytic lymphoproliferative disease that has variable presentations. The concurrent presentation of RDD in the spinal cord and brain parenchyma is an extremely rare entity. Here, we report another case of a 24-year-old gentleman who presented with a tuberculum sellae and bilateral cavernous extra-axial tumors extending to the subtemporal lobe and was found to have craniocervical lesions. Axillary lymph node biopsy was done showing markedly dilated sinuses filled with large histiocytes and emperipolesis of numerous lymphocytes and plasma cells confirming the diagnosis of RDD. Because the definitive diagnosis of RDD is always pathological, the clinical presentation plays a major role in widening the margin of differential diagnosis. Finally, surgical intervention is the first option to treat RDD with relatively satisfactory follow-up outcomes, and other adjuvant therapies optimize the prognosis.

Surg Neurol Int 2021; 12:292.

Abstract
Background: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytic proliferative disorder classically as a massive cervical lymphadenopathy. However, over the years, extranodal locations were confirmed with the central nervous system involvement in less than 5% of cases, which is marked as a significant differential diagnosis of meningiomas, with which they are widely confused due to the similarity of their radiological images. Case Description: We report a 37-year-old man and 45-year-old man who were diagnosed with intracranial RDD but whose radiological images mimic meningiomas, requiring anatomopathological and tumor’s immunohistochemistry for definitive diagnosis. Moreover, a review of 184 publications with 285 cases of intracranial involvement of this disease was also performed, comparing these findings with those brought in the previous studies. Conclusion: Intracranial Rosai-Dorfman tumors should always be remembered as differential diagnosis of meningiomas since they are similar radiologically and macroscopically. Once remembered and diagnosed, the lesion must be treated following the same pattern of resection done in meningiomas and, treatment’s differences will not occur in the surgical excision technique, but in complementary chemotherapy implementation, radiotherapy, and even with radiosurgery aid, depending on the case. Thus, it is possible to obtain better results than with just the isolated surgical procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE To review and summarize the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment strategies, and prognosis of spinal Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD). METHODS RDD is also termed as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy. We searched the databases of PubMed, Elsevier ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and OVID. The keywords were Rosai-Dorfman disease and spine/central nervous system. Research articles and case reports with accessibility to full texts regarding spinal RDD were eligible for the inclusion. A total of 62 articles were included, and they contained 69 cases. We extracted the information of interest and analyzed them using SPSS statistics package. RESULTS The average age was 33.1 ± 18.3 years. The ratio of males to females was 1.9/1. Overall, 63 cases presented with spine-related symptoms. A total of 27 cases (39.1%) had multi-organ lesions, and 12 cases had records of massive lymphadenopathy. Among 47 cases who first manifested spine-related symptoms, 93.6% were preoperatively misdiagnosed. The disease had a predilection for cervical spine (38.8%) and thoracic spine (40.3%). 62.9% of lesions were dura-based. Surgery remained the mainstream treatment option (78.8%), with or without adjuvant therapies. Total lesion resection was achieved in 34.8% of cases. The rate of lesion recurrence/progression was 19.5%, which was marginally lower for total resection than for non-total resection. CONCLUSION Spinal RDD has no pathognomonic clinical and imaging features. Most cases first present with spine-relevant symptoms. Massive lymphadenopathy is not common, but a tendency for multi-organ involvement should be considered. Spinal RDD has a high recurrence rate; thus, total resection is the treatment of choice. Adjuvant therapies are indicated for multi-organ lesions and residual lesions. A wait and watch strategy is recommended for asymptomatic patients. Herein, a workflow of diagnosis and treatment of the spinal RDD is established.
