==Definition / Description of Disease==
Tumours derived from Langerhans cells (LCs) are rare disorders characterized by clonal proliferation of LCs that can be subdivided in to two groups based on severity of cytological atypia and clinical aggressiveness. These two groups are LC histiocytosis (LCH) and LC sarcoma. LC sarcoma displays overt malignant cytological features and is more clinically aggressive. <ref name=":0">{{Cite journal|date=2016-07-21|title=Arber DA, Orazi A, Hasserjian R, et al.

Most cases are identified in adults with extra nodal and multifocal disease with skin and underlying soft tissue lesions as the most common sites of involvement.  Patients can present with multiorgan involvement including lymph nodes, lung, liver, spleen and bone lesions. Grade III-IV disease is present in ~44% of patients with only 22% of cases presenting with primary nodal disease only. Hepatosplenomegaly and pancytopenia are seen in less than a quarter of patients <ref name=":0" />.
LCS is an aggressive high grade malignancy associated with progressive disease and a high (>50%) mortality rate <ref name=":0" />.

==Morphologic Features==
The key feature for the diagnosis is the presence of the LCH cells. Overtly malignant features of LC's include a high mitotic rate (usually >50 mitoses per 10 high powered fields), clumped chromatin and the presence of nucleoli. The LC cell morphology can be highly pleomorphic, potentially with the cellular ultrastructure or phenotype being the only indication of the LC derivation. Similar to LCH, the Birbeck granules can be detected by electron microscopy. Characteristic complex nuclear grooves may be present on histology <ref name=":0" />.
==Immunophenotype==
The immunophenotype is identical to LCH, cells consistently express CD1a, langerin (CD2017) and S100, which can be used to distinguish LCH from other histiocytic disorders and non-neoplastic macrophages<ref name=":0" />.
