title: [Kikuchi's necrotizing lymphadenitis. A clinical case].
abstract: We present a case of a female patient who presented with Kikuchi's necrotic lymphadenitis a rare disease in our country and whose diagnosis fundamentally is histological, which itself is also difficult because of the wide range of differential diagnosis which has to be considered. This entity is frequent during the adolescent period in females and its clinical manifestations are few apart from that related to the lymphadenitis.
