The disease usually occurs in women in their late 20s or early 30s. Reports in the pediatric literature are sparse. Most authors consider Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease as a self-limiting disorder that requires no specific management but long-term follow-up. The clinical features of Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease are easily confused with other less-benign conditions. Thus, an early biopsy is instrumental in making definite diagnosis and preventing unnecessary investigations. We describe a case of Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease in an 8-year-old boy which presenting as a submandibular gland tumor. The case illustrates the clinical features of this unusual condition and emphasizes the potential confusion with other diagnoses. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=19586 ------>authors2=Chen RMY ------>authors3=Chao PZ ------>authors4=Yang TH ------>authors5=Lee FP ------>authors6= ------>authors6_c= ------>authors=Chiang YC ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c= ------>publish_area=0 ------>updateTitle=Pediatric Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease masquerading as a submandibular gland tumor. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=None ------>no= ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2004 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=2 |
