Abstract excerpt
Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a histiocytic neoplasm that predominantly harbors mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway variants. MAPK inhibitors typically are effective treatments, but mutations outside the MAPK pathway, such as CSF1R variants, may cause refractory ECD. We describe a patient with a novel somatic mutation in CSF1R (CSF1RR549_E554delinsQ ) that resulted in refractory ECD affecting the...
