  • Title: [Self-limited lymphadenopathy mimicking lymphoma or lupus (Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease)].
    Author: Solt I, Gatas N, Cohen Y, Rimon D.
    Journal: Harefuah; 1999 Jan 01; 136(1):34-6, 94. PubMed ID: 10914156.
    Abstract:
    Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease in a self-limited lymphadenopathy that can be confused histologically and clinically with lymphoma or systemic lupus erythematosus. It was diagnosed in a 37-year-old woman presenting with fever, cervical, submandibular and axillary lymphadenopathy, weight loss and recurrent urinary tract infections. Lymph node biopsy was consistent with the diagnosis of a histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis. Early diagnosis of Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease can prevent harmful treatment.
