Abstract
Skin biopsies from two children with juvenile xanthogranuloma were studied. Enzyme‐ and immunohistochemistry was used to establish the mononuclear phagocytic nature of the proliferating dermal elements. The usefulness of both techniques in the diagnosis and the differential diagnosis of this disease is suggested.Keywords
