Ameena Thamer Alresheedi

Abstract: A 9 years old boy presented with atypical and new presentation of Kikuchi disease with extensive generalized lymphadenopathy with kidney involvement in radiological studies. The disease is established by the combination of clinical presentation, laboratory testing, radiological findings and histo-pathological confirmation. As many reports, which gave different trails of management, we chose not to use any medications such as antibiotics and steroids as there was no causative organism identified and there was no need for urgent intervention. Spontaneous resolution within weeks to months is the nature of Kukuchi disease.
