Abstract

Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease (KFD) also known by a name called Histiocytic Necrotizing Lymphadenitis. It is very rare, non-cancerous and self-limiting Auto-Immune disease but most suspected as to be cancer, tuberculosis and systemic lupus erythematosus. It has symptoms such as cervical lymphadenopathy (enlargement of lymph nodes), low fever, headache, fatigue, night sweats, and muscles pain. It typically affects young females aged between 20-35 years and it mostly affects Asian populations. The correct identification of KFD is characterized by Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology by taking a blood sample from the swollen lymph node. Diagnosis is also possible with Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy. Treatment for this disease has not been established. Non-steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs or steroids are in use to ease tenderness of lymph node and fever.
