description Introduction: Eosinophilic granuloma is an unusual benign disease that usually affects the pediatric population and young adults. It is the most benign of the diseases traditionally known as histiocytosis X that are now called Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Clinical Case: Pediatric patient with a painful lump in the temporal region. The imaging tests carried out reveal the existence of an osteolytic lesion with an aggressive pattern compatible with eosinophilic granuloma. The patient underwent surgery with a conclusive definitive histological diagnosis of eosinophilic granuloma. Discussion: Eosinophilic granuloma can affect one or multiple bones, of which the most frequent are the cranial bones, epiphyses of long bones and ribs, requiring individualized diagnosis and treatment strategies for optimal management and results, with surgical treatment of First choice. Conclusion: Eosinophilic granuloma is an infrequent benign condition that requires a correct anamnesis and clinical examination of the patient, as well as the demonstration of the characteristic radiological images, allowing a generally accurate presumptive diagnosis to be reached that in most cases can be considered definitive.
