Erdheim-Chester disease: a case treated with IFN-α monitored using plasma and urine cell-free DNA.

Abstract excerpt

A 40-year-old woman was diagnosed as Erdheim-Chester disease based on typical bone scintigraphy, symmetric osteosclerosis and findings of foamy, non-Langerhans histiocytes in bone marrow.
