Table 1. Clinical details of LCH patients.

Disease categories (Group 1–3) correspond to Histiocyte Society groups used in the LCH-III treatment protocol. Group 4 includes patients with single non-risk lesions.

Chemotherapy abbreviations:

LCHIII-1A: vinblastine, prednisone, mercaptopurine.

LCHIII-1B: vinblastine, prednisone, mercaptopurine, methotrexate.

VP-16: etoposide

LCH-A1: vinblastine, prednisone, mercaptopurine (Histiocyte Society adult LCH protocol).
