Juvenile xanthogranuloma, abbreviated JXG, is a relatively common distinctive diagnosis in dermatopathology. It is also known as nevoxanthoendothelioma. In adults, it is called adult xanthogranuloma.[1]
General
- Usually in children and infants, sometimes in adults.[1]
- Most common form of non–Langerhans cell histiocytosis.[4]
- Can rarely be found in the brain.[5]
Microscopic
Features:[4]
- Dermal histiocytes:
- Abundant cytoplasm - may not be xanthomatous/foam cells.
- +/-Touton giant cell - key feature.
- Large multi-nucleated cells where nuclei are distributed at the cell periphery.
Notes:
- Must prove they are non-Langerhans cell histiocytes, esp. if no Touton giant cells.
DDx:
- Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
- Spitz nevus - uncommon; reported to have Touton cells.[6]
- Dermatofibroma, aneurysmal - has Touton giant cells and hemosiderin deposition.
- Tuberculoma.
- Erdheim-Chester disease - usu. BRAF V600E mutated.[7]
- Rosai-Dorfman disease - Emperipolesis.
- Necrobiotic xanthogranuloma - also may have Touton giant cells.

IHC
Features:[4]
- Langerhans cell markers: CD1a, CD207 -- both should be negative.
- If Touton giant cells are absent -- this is essential.
- Histiocyte markers: CD68, CD163 -- both should be positive.
- Vimentin +ve.
Other markers:[8]
- CD4 +ve (21 of 27 cases).
- CD45 +ve (25 of 27 cases).
- Factor XIIIa +ve (25 of 27 cases).
Negatives:[9]
- Muscle markers: actin, desmin.
- Others: S100, factor VIII, cytokeratins.
