Description
The Histiocytosis Association of America was founded to coordinate a network of patients, families, physicians and others interested in providing support and solutions to the special problems caused by histiocytosis. Histiocytosis is a general term for a group of rare disorders brought on by having too many histiocyte cells. The Association works closely with the Histiocyte Society, has a parent/patient directory and sponsors regional meetings.
