La enfermedad de Rosai Dorfman es un desorden multisistémico de etiología y patogénesis desconocidas, pero se piensa que representa un proceso reactivo histiocítico a un agente infectante en lugar de una neoplasia u otra condición primaria. Se han informado en la literatura menos de 1 000 casos que han estado asociados con disímiles enfermedades. Se hace referencia de un caso clínico atendido en la República Democrático Federal de Etiopía en el año 2003 con compromiso panglandular y diagnósticos previos inciertos hasta su conclusión definitiva(AU)
