  juvenile xanthogranulomas; juvenile xanthogranuloma - generalized eruptive histiocytosis
  Definition: Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG), or generalized eruptive histiocytosis, is a rare disorder of the non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) type with unknown etiology and pathogenesis. It is still unclear whether JXG is a reactive or a neoplastic process. Clonality has been assessed (#17460468#). It can be localized or multicentric.
