Pennsylvania SR146 designates September 2025 as "Histiocytosis Awareness Month" to raise awareness of rare histiocytic disorders.
Pennsylvania SR146 aims to increase public awareness of histiocytic disorders, a group of rare conditions caused by an overproduction of white blood cells known as histiocytes. These disorders can lead to organ damage and tumor formation. Histiocytic disorders are classified into five main groups, aiding in diagnosis and treatment. Research over the past 15 to 20 years has improved understanding, and some disorders have been classified as rare cancers, known as histiocytic neoplasms.
