Lymph nodal disease is one of the most common manifestations of head and neck tuberculosis and is particularly frequent in paediatric patients with an increasing incidence in the last decade. It may represent the manifestation of a systemic tuberculous disease or a clinical entity specific of the neck. Aim of this paper is to retrospectively analyse mycobacterial cervical adenopathies observed in two Paediatric European Centers between 1986 and 2004 and the outcomes of medical or surgical treatment.

Abstract

Lymph nodal disease is one of the most common manifestations of head and neck tuberculosis and is particularly frequent in paediatric patients with an increasing incidence in the last decade. It may represent the manifestation of a systemic tuberculous disease or a clinical entity specific of the neck. Aim of this paper is to retrospectively analyse mycobacterial cervical adenopathies observed in two Paediatric European Centers between 1986 and 2004 and the outcomes of medical or surgical treatment.
