ABSTRACT
Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis) was
described in 1972 as a process which tends to heal spontaneously,
characterized by cervical adenopathy, fever, and leukopenia. We present
the case of a female patient, age 43 years, who presented manifestations
of parotitis, cervical adenopathies, fever, and leukopenia. Observations
were made by ultrasound, tomography, magnetic resonance, and
positron emission tomography combined with simple tomography. A
biopsy of lymph nodes in the neck was taken.
Conclusion: diagnosis is always histopathological and with immunohistochemical
studies.
