title: Generalized lichenoid juvenile xanthogranuloma.
abstract: A generalized eruption of small, flat and shiny papules was observed in an otherwise healthy 6-month-old baby. The light and electron microscopical and immunohistological features of the self-healing lesions were consistent with juvenile xanthogranuloma and suggested an atypical lichenoid variant of this non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
