Case report In Langerhans cell histiocytosis thyroid involvement is rarely seen. Here, we would like to present a 12-year-old male patient with lung, external auditory canal skin and lymph node involvement in diagnosis. Disease relapse occurred with thyroid involvement 19 months after remission. In molecular analysis, BRAF p.N 486 _P490del was detected and he reccived MEK inhibitor Trametinib monotherapy. He is still in remission for 16 months.
