Abstract
Histiocytosis X or Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), is a rare disease that highly varied clinical presentation ranging from single system to multisystem involvement. In otolaryngologic practice temporal bone presentation is clinically similar to otitis externa, otitis media, acute mastoiditis, chronic mastoiditis. We diagnosed and treated 3 temporal bone LCH cases. In this paper these cases are presented and their optimum treatment is discussed in detail.
