Abstract :

Juvenile xanthogranuloma(JXG) is an uncommon benign histiocytic cutaneous lesion which is seen primarily in first two decades of life. There is not much literature available on its cytology. We present a case of solitary juvenile xanthogranuloma in a 43 years old female located above left nasal ala which was diagnosed on Fine needle aspiration cytology and subsequently confirmed on histology. Characteristic cytological features favored a diagnosis of juvenile xanthogranuloma.
