Spontaneous Bleed in a Patient With Thrombocytopenia Due to Multi-System Langerhan’s Histiocytosis

Langerhan’s cell histiocytosis (LCH) is an uncommon disorder that can vary in presentation, ranging from single-system to multi-system organ involvement. Herein is a case of multi-system LCH in a 50-year-old female found to have splenomegaly and severe thrombocytopenia, which resulted in a spontaneous bleed. This rare case highlights the possible occurrences which can occur with such a condition and more importantly focuses on the proper management and treatment modalities which should be available in such conditions.
