This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.
A 60-year-old man with a history of diabetes insipidus presented with a left groin mass, leg edema, and retroperitoneal adenopathy. Biopsy results of the involved lymph nodes were typical of eosinophilic granuloma. The patient was treated with etoposide and prednisone and had a complete regression of his lymphadenopathy and edema. This response suggests that etoposide may be a useful agent in the management of histiocytosis X.
