Mild cases often resolve spontaneously, while severe cases can affect multiple organs and be life-threatening. LCH affecting the liver, spleen, or hematopoietic system has a poor prognosis and is high-risk group. The LCH-III study showed that low-risk children respond well to prednisone and vinblastine, with nearly 100% survival, but high-risk children's survival is about 80%, with a 30% reactivation rate.Long-term studies reveal that about 50% of patients are resistant to prednisone and vinblastine, leading to progression and recurrence. Except combination of prednisone and vinblastine, cladribine (introduced in 1998) and MAPK inhibitors (introduced in 2014), have lowered the mortality rate of LCH in childr
