Abstract
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis characterized by massive lymphadenopathy and systemic extranodal lesions. We present the case of a 28-year-old woman who presented with recurrent blurred vision in her right eye for 3 months. She developed blindness and atrophy in her left eye a decade prior to presentation. She subsequently developed headache, fever, and impaired mental status. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging indicated hypertrophic pachymeningitis (HP), and 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-2-d-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography revealed significant FDG uptake in the left dura mater. Autoimmune testing revealed elevated anti-nuclear, anti-SS-A, and anti-SS-B antibody levels. Incisional biopsy of the atrophic eyeball revealed RDD with marked polyclonal plasmacytosis. The patient was diagnosed with RDD accompanied by multisystem involvement, including Sjögren's syndrome (SS), panuveitis, and HP. Treatment with methylprednisolone for several weeks resulted in significant improvement. This is the first reported case of RDD presenting with SS in combination with panuveitis and HP. Although RDD is rarely diagnosed in young patients, interdisciplinary collaboration is essential to prevent a delayed diagnosis.

Abstract
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), a rare form of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, can involve systemic extranodal lesions. Skin lesions are the most common, whereas intrapelvic, cardiac, and hepatic lesions are infrequent. The present study describes a 74-year-old woman with multiple extranodal lesions in the pelvis, heart, liver, and skin that were successfully treated with glucocorticoid therapy. She had experienced fever and persistent inflammation without cervical lymphadenopathy for several months and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) showed abnormal FDG uptake in the left cheek; cervical, axillary, inguinal lymph nodes; periatrium; and pelvis. She was diagnosed with RDD based on skin and pelvic biopsies. Although this was an atypical case without bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy, the FDG-PET detection of inflammatory lesions led to selection of suitable biopsy sites, and pathological examination led to a correct diagnosis. Findings in this patient indicate that RDD can present with an atypical distribution of infrequent extranodal lesions, with attention required to prevent a delayed diagnosis.
