Abstract

Rosai-Dorfman disease is a rare entity predominantly affecting children and young adults, characterized in 83–95% of cases by painless bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy. We report the unusual case of a 41-year-old woman with Rosai-Dorfman disease that presented as a solitary lesion of the radius without other clinical manifestations.
