Abstract:
Purpose:The study of major point on differential diagnosis between the Kikuchi lymphadenitis and malignant lymphoma.Methods:7 cases difficult diagnosis of Kikuchi lymphadenitis were observed by histology and immunohistochemistry.Results:The common features in these 7 cases kikuchi lymphadenitis was (1) The lymphnode swelling after heat;(2)Multiple focus of lesion and in the pathologic areas, the cellular composition was dominated by striking blastic histiocytes and phagocytes, few plasmacytoid monocytes, T immunoblasts and T lymphocytes;(3) Absence of neutrophiles infiltration;(5)Variable amounts of mitotic figures. Conclusions:Author considered on the special clinical feature, multiple focus of leison, striking blastic histiocytes and phagocytes and few other cells mixed composition, and with variable amount of nuclear debris were major features of differential diagnosis between the Kikuchi lymphadenitis and malignant lymphoma.
