- Abstract
Kikuchi's disease is a rare, benign, self-limiting disease, mainly involving the lymph nodes of young people. The etiology is unknown. Clinical symptoms and basic investigations may mimic lymphomas and chronic granulomatous conditions like tuberculosis. Lymph node biopsy shows characteristic diagnostic features. Even though described internationally, the local disease pattern or incidence has not been well studied.
