Description We observed an excellent effect of lenalidomide in multifocal aggressive, repeatedly relapsing Langerhans cell histiocytosis where it led to complete remission. We showed an effect of lenalidomide in Langerhans cell histiocytosis and in Castleman disease. The treatment led to regression of brain infiltrates in a patient with Erdheim-Chester disease. A dose of 10 mg of lenalidomide daily in combination with 50 mg of thalidomide stabilized a course of angiomatosis. Lenalidomide did not deliver the required treatment response in a patient with POEMS syndrome and multiple previous therapies.
