This article provides an overview of the major pathologic manifestations of sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, including patient characteristics and current knowledge about its pathogenesis, with an emphasis on multifocal and extranodal presentation. Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy is a rare, nonneoplastic, idiopathic, proliferative histiocytic disorder; recognition of this disorder is important to avoid misinterpretation and subsequent unnecessary treatment. This is especially true for primary extranodal manifestation of this rare disorder. Although accurate diagnosis of this entity requires a correlation of clinical, radiologic, laboratory, and pathologic studies in most cases, it remains a disorder primarily defined by its histopathologic features and pathologic manifestations, which are key to the diagnosis.
