Cerebral Microvascular Erdheim-Chester Disease: A Perivascular Hematopoietic Vasculopathy.

Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare and elusive hematopoietic malignancy that may involve the nervous system in various ways. Cerebrovascular ECD involves the perivascular infiltration and compromise of any cervicocranial vessel by transformed proliferating histiocytes.
