An extrapulmonary oat cell carcinoma arising in the larynx is described. Ultrastructurally the tumor is identical to the oat cell carcinoma of pulmonary origin. The pressure of neurosecretory granules in our case strongly suggests that the tumor is derived from Kulchitsky-like cells, a histogenesis
There is little information available regarding epidemiologic risk factors for Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). An exploratory investigation was conducted using information obtained from parents of 177 cases of LCH diagnosed before 21 years of age (median 2 years). Utilizing data available from
