Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy or Destombes-Rosai-Dorfman's syndrome is a rare benign disease of unknown etiology, usually seen in younger patients. The cases reported concerned a 15-month old Caucasian boy and an 8 year old black boy with unilateral cervical enlargement, occasional fever and without any extranodal involvement. Diagnosis was performed by superficial lymph node biopsy. No immunodeficiency was found. The patients received no therapy and a complete spontaneous resolution was seen after a few months in the two cases. The clinical presentation, histologic characteristics, pathogenesis and treatment of the Destombes-Rosai-Dorfman's syndrome are discussed.
