    Area of Science:

    • Medicine
    • Pathology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia (ALNH) is a rare condition.
    • The majority of ALNH cases (80%) occur in the mediastinum.

    Observation:

    • A 3.5-year-old male presented with cervical (neck) ALNH.
    • This represents the youngest patient reported with this condition, particularly in this location.

    Findings:

    • The case study discusses the history, etiology, and pathology of cervical ALNH.
    • This presentation is highly unusual given the typical mediastinal location and rarity of ALNH.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the known clinical spectrum of angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia.
    • Further research into the etiology and optimal management of pediatric cervical ALNH is warranted.
