    Abstract:
    This is a retrospective study of biopsies of lymph nodes received in the department of pathology, Nepal Medical College (NMC), from January 2004 to December 2005. Total number of lymph node biopsies during the two year period was 55, out of which 56.0% cases were females and 44.0% were males with M:F 1:1.29. Most common cause of lymphadenopathy was tuberculosis and most common group of lymph node was cervical lymph nodes. Metastatic deposits were seen in only six cases. So, like other developing countries, in our country also, tuberculosis is the leading cause for lymphadenopathy.
