Sažetak

Eosinophilic granuloma is a rare, benign, lesion characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of Langerhan’s cells. It is commonly found in a bone and has been described in almost every bone in the body. It usually affects children and is seldom found in adults. A case of 60-year-old adult male with an eosinophilic granuloma of the right temporal bone with infiltration of the temporal and infratemporal fossa and osteolysis of the squama of the temporal bone is presented. Diagnostic procedure and course of treatment are described. Controversies in the management and different approaches in therapy of such lesion are discussed because there is no agreed treatment protocol established.
