· LCH is a rather rare disease from the hemato-oncological spectrum. · Affection of the temporal bone, especially such an extensive one (as in this case report), is rather atypical in adulthood. · Use of systemic therapy resulted in remission. · There was complete reossification of the osseous structures post-therapy. · A cochlear implant was able to be implanted to compensate for hearing loss.
