Necrotizing granulomatous cervical lymphadenitis associated with B lymphocyte abnormalities and a positive PPD
Abstract:
Sarcoidosis is a diagnosis often made by exclusion. We present a case of what we believe is sarcoidosis presenting as cervical lymphadenopathy. Complicating issues in this patient included B lymphocyte abnormalities, and a positive PPD reaction. The patient continues to be steroid dependent. This case illustrates the difficulties in diagnosis and management of sarcoidosis.
