A 10-year-old male underwent a fine needle aspiration cytology of lymph nodes on the right side of his neck. Microscopy of the smears showed highly cellular samples with various immune cells, caseous necrotic material, and an ill-defined granuloma. The impression was necrotic lymphadenitis of the right post auricular lymph node. It was advised to do further PCR or biopsy testing and a Montoux test to rule out tuberculous lymphadenitis given the presence of caseous necrosis.

On Examination : Right side postauricular lymph nodes 2 in number
mobile, measures 1x1 and 0.5Cms. Microscopy : Smeaars form lymphnode are highly cellular showing polymorphic polpulation of lymphoid cells consisting of mature lymphocytes, Centrocyts, centroblasts and many tingible body macrophages. There is single ill defined attempted granuloma formation and caseous necrotic material in the background.
- No eviednce of malignent cells.
IMPRESSION : Right post auricular lymphnode- Necrotic lymphadenitis.
Advice : Suggested PCR from FNAC material or biopsy and
montoux test to rule out Tubercular lymphadenitis in view of caseous necrotic material. ( Slides enclosed. Please preserve them carefully)
