Localized tuberculous lymphadenopathy associated with the myelodysplastic syndrome.
A 46-year-old man with fever and pancytopenia was found to have a myelodysplastic syndrome. During the course of the illness, he had localized cervical tuberculous lymphadenitis. We believe this association of the myelodysplastic syndrome with localized tuberculosis has not been previously described.
