Positive lymphangiography in gaucher's disease. Report of a case.
The author reports a case of Gaucher's disease in which lymphangiography was performed to evaluate cervical lymphadenopathy, later shown to be Hodgkin's disease. The 24-hour lymphangiogram showed fragmentation of the normal nodal architecture and foamy-appearing lymph nodes in the aortic bifurcation. Microscopic study of these nodes revealed abnormalities characteristic of Gaucher's disease.
