adenopathy

Low grade fever and peripheral adenopathy may be present.

Only two patients had palpable cervical adenopathy during the initial evaluation.

With metastatic disease, adenopathy, hepatomegaly, or pulmonary signs may be present.

Approximately 80% of patients present with painless adenopathy, commonly in the supraclavicular or cervical area.

This was recognized as a clinical syndrome in the 1800s consisting of fever, pharyngitis and adenopathy.

This disorder is often mistaken for malignant lymphoma, especially cervical adenopathy because the symptoms are very similar.

Radiation therapy may be palliative for the primary tumor, regional adenopathy, and bone metastases.

In cases of massive homolateral adenopathy that is fixed or bilateral nodes, radiation therapy should be administered first.

In those children who present with peripheral adenopathy, a lymph node biopsy under local anesthesia and in an upright position may be possible.

Multicentric Castleman disease presents with generalized adenopathy and fever and may progress to multiorgan failure.

MCD manifests with generalized adenopathy and fever and can progress to multi-organ failure (795).

Common clinical signs and symptoms of Whipple's disease include weight loss, joint pain or arthritis, diarrhea, skin rashes, fever, and adenopathy.

The neck and supraclavicular fossa are palpated to feel for cervical adenopathy, other masses, and laryngeal crepitus.

On the other hand, the absence of cervical adenopathy and fatigue are the most useful to dismiss the idea of infectious mononucleosis as the correct diagnosis.

In sarcoidosis presenting in the Caucasian population, hilar adenopathy and erythema nodosum are the most common initial symptoms.

Mediastinal lymphadenopathy or mediastinal adenopathy is an enlargement of the mediastinal lymph nodes.

Inguinal adenopathy (Lymph node Swelling)

Some objective responses (responses that are measured rather than based on opinion), such as decreased adenopathy (swollen lymph nodes) and decreased tumor size, were noted.

If no inguinal adenopathy exists, node dissection is not recommended, but careful inguinal palpation is mandatory at 3- to 4-month intervals.

Ipsilateral inguinal node dissection is indicated only if biopsy of ipsilateral palpable adenopathy is positive on frozen section.

Mansonella ozzardi can cause symptoms that include arthralgias, headaches, fever, pulmonary symptoms, adenopathy, hepatomegaly, and pruritus (3).

Pulmonary involvement is evident in most cases and can be characterized by localized alveolar consolidation, pneumonitis, and hilar and mediastinal adenopathy.

Hilar adenopathy might persist for as long as 2--3 years despite successful antituberculous therapy, and a normal radiograph is not a criterion to discontinue therapy.

Cavitation, intrathoracic adenopathy, and pleural effusion are uncommon in the absence of other pulmonary pathogens or malignancy, and their presence might indicate an alternative diagnosis.
