| Sumario: | Necrobiotic xanthogranuloma is a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis with a known association with monoclonal gammopathies and malignant conditions. There is a lack of consensus regarding the management of necrobiotic xanthogranuloma. In this case report, the patient is diagnosed with a long-standing necrobiotic xanthogranuloma limited to the skin.

The goal of the authors is to highlight the need for clearer investigation and follow-up guidelines. |
