Non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis refers to a family of histiocytosis characterized by the absence of Langerhans cells.[2]
Many manifest cutaneously.[3]
The spectrum of non-langerhans cell histiocytoses include:
- Benign cephalic histiocytosis
 - Generalized eruptive histiocytoma
 - Indeterminate cell histiocytosis
 - Juvenile xanthogranuloma
 - Progressive nodular histiocytoma
 - Necrobiotic xanthogranuloma
 - (Giant Cell) Reticulohistiocytoma
 - Multicentric reticulohistiocytosis
 - Rosai–Dorfman disease
 - Xanthoma disseminatum
 - Kikuchi disease
 - Erdheim–Chester disease.[4]
