	Hypopigmented macules are a rare cutaneous presentation of Langerhans cell histiocytosis that may pose a diagnostic dilemma when no other findings of Langerhans cell histiocytosis are present at the time of examination.

	These cases highlight the importance of including Langerhans cell histiocytosis in the differential diagnosis of an infant with hypopigmented macules and papules.
