“…A previous study [7] reviewed the literature over the last 40 years and found only eight cases of RDD located in the maxillary bones of 6 females and two males. This may highlight that extra-nodal involvement of RDD in maxillary bone affects female patients more than males, and it comes in line with our present case.…”

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare condition characterized by the proliferation of non-Langerhans cell histiocytes that are associated with phagocytosed lymphocytes (emperipolesis). Clinically, it is classified into nodal, extra-nodal, neoplasia-associated RDD, and immune-related. Here, we present a case of a 65year-old female who presented with facial pain following a dental procedure with no focal neurologic deficit. The MRI of the head and neck showed a well-defined lobulated soft tissue lesion with homogenous enhancement over the left cheek. Excision of the lesion was done, and the histopathological study reported extra-nodal RDD with features of IgG4-related sclerosing disease. The patient had no recurrence over the two years from the date of diagnosis.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), formerly called sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, is a non-neoplastic proliferative histiocytic disorder with behavior ranging from highly aggressive to spontaneous remission. Although the lymph nodes are more commonly involved, any organ can be affected. This study aimed to describe the features and the follow-up of a case of extranodal RDD. Our patient was a 39-year-old woman who was referred with an 11-month history of pain in the right maxilla. On clinical examination, some upper right teeth presented full mobility with normal appearance of the surrounding gingiva. Radiographic exams showed an extensive bone reabsorption and maxillary sinus filled with homogeneous tissue, which sometimes showed polypoid formation. An incisional biopsy demonstrated a diffuse inflammatory infiltrate rich in foamy histiocytes displaying lymphocytes emperipolesis. Immunohistochemistry showed positivity for CD68 and S-100, and negativity for CD3, CD20, and CD30. Such features were consistent with the RDD diagnosis. The patient was referred to a hematologist and corticotherapy was administrated for 6 months. RDD is an uncommon disease that rarely affects the maxilla. In the present case, the treatment was conservative, and the patient is currently asymptomatic after 5 years of follow-up.

“…According to their review, only there had been only 7 similar cases described from 1969 to 2011. 13 Moreover, distraction osteogenesis in these cases has very specific goals which are to correct the vertical discrepancy that occurs between the reconstructed mandible and alveolar ridge of residual mandibular segment, and to provide proper vertical height to a later rehabilitation with osseointegrated implants. Thus, distraction osteogenesis can be performed as a secondary procedure allowing bone gain to achieve the ultimate objective of recovering the occlusion in the most functional possible way.…”

“…It has been proposed in several different treatment modalities like surgical treatment, corticosteroids, gammaglobulins, but none of these treatments is definitive. 2,12 Nowadays, there are 500 cases of these diseases, and because of its low incidence, there are not comparative studies about the effectiveness of each treatment 10,12,13 .…”
