title: Neonatal juvenile xanthogranuloma. Report of a case with fine needle aspiration cytologic findings in a soft tissue mass.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Juvenile xanthogranuloma is an infrequent, benign histiocytic lesion, the recognition and diagnosis of which by fine needle aspiration biopsy are important for ascertaining whether a case will have a benign course or spontaneous regression.
  
  
  METHODS
  A case of juvenile xanthogranuloma was located in the upper lip of a newborn male.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Juvenile xanthogranuloma has characteristic cytologic features that may allow recognition in fine needle aspiration cytology smears.
