Cutaneous manifestation of Kikuchi's disease: a case report.
A 22-year-old male was admitted with a 1-month history of chills, fever, multiple skin eruption and painless lymphadenopathy. He has later been confirmed by typical histopathological findings to be a case of Kikuchi's histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis. Extranodal involvement with skin manifestation in Kikuchi's disease has rarely been reported; herein this unusual case is described.
