Xanthoma disseminatum ( XD ) is a nonfamilial type of normolipidemic mucocutaneous xanthomatosis that belongs to the group of non–Langerhans cell histiocytoses. More than 100 cases of XD have been reported. In this study we report a case of XD in a 4‐year‐old boy with diabetes insipidus ( DI ). This boy is one of the youngest patients ever to present with XD combined with DI .
