ALK Positive Histiocytosis Presenting as a Solitary Pulmonary Spindle Cell Tumor Case Report

2026-08-19

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive histiocytosis (ALK-PH) is a rare histiocytic neoplasm defined by ALK gene rearrangements and characterized by a broad spectrum of clinical and pathological manifestations. Primary involvement of the lung is exceedingly rare and poses significant diagnostic challenges. Case Presentation: We report a case of a solitary pulmonary spindle cell...
