Hand-Schuller-Christian disease is a multifocal variant of eosinophilic granuloma, characterised by the classical triad of bony lesions, exophtamos and diabetes insipidus. This case relates recurrent Langerhan’s cell histiocytisis lesions presented as destruction of periodontal support associated with diabetis in a 10-year–old patient. Medical history suggests that the case represents a case of Hand-Schuller Christian disease.
