The etiology is unknown, affecting individuals predominantly below 30 years of age, without predilection for gender. Clinically presents itself as multiple, disseminated, yellow-brownish papules or nodules. Diagnostic confirmation is given by histopathology and by immunohistochemistry, which further allow to distinguish it from Langerhans cell histiocytosis. The spontaneous regression is uncommon. We report a classic, rare and clinically exuberant case of multiple adult xanthogranuloma and took the opportunity to perform a brief literature review on the topic.</p&gt;}, number={2}, journal={Journal of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereology}, author={Siqueira Ramos, Felipe and Ferreira, Flávia Regina and Mandelbaum, Samuel Henrique and da Rocha Gonçalves, Fernanda}, year={2017}, month={Jul.}, pages={193-196} }
