AB A  2-year-old  healthy  Caucasian  male  is  brought  in  by  his  mother  for  evaluation  of  a  solitary  mass-like  lesion  that  developed  on  his  scalp  over  the  past  couple  of  months.  The  nodule  was  asymptomatic.  His  mother  denies  other  symptoms  or  medical  problems.  Physical  examination  was  normal  except  for  a  1cm  yellow,  dome-shaped,  smooth  nodule  on  scalp  apex  (Figure  140-1).  Clinical  diagnosis  of  juvenile  xanthogranuloma  was  made  and  mother  was  given  reassurance  that  lesion  would  regress  spontaneously  over  the  next  months.
