Abstract:The evaluation of our clinical study suggests that LCH is a disease that should be treated surgically. Only in very severe cases should the surgical treatment be complimented by either radiotherapy or chemotherapy. In disseminated cases, especially chemotherapy seems to improve the outcome. Surgery offers the possibility of eliminating systemic side effects.
