ABSTRACT
A female newborn who presented erosions on folds, papules on palms and soles and red-brownish plaques on the back without involvement of internal organs is reported. Light microscopy showed an histiocytic infiltrate in the papillary dermis with epidermotrophism. Inmunomarking with S100 and CD1a was positive; therefore the histiocytes were Langerhans cells. The systemic evaluation excluded extracutaneous involvement. The cutaneous lesions resolved spontanously in two weeks so the case was diagnosed as Congenital self-healing reticulohistiocytosis.
