Abstract
We present a case of toxoplasma lymphadenitis diagnosed by histologic and
serologic evaluation. A 40-year-old woman presented with a 4-month history
of a unilateral cervical lymphadenopathy. An excisional biopsy specimen of
the lymph node disclosed a toxoplasma cyst. Her IgG anti-Toxoplasma
serotiter far exceeded the upper normal limit. Histological findings
supporting a diagnosis of toxoplasmosis correlated with the results of
serological studies. This report emphasizes the need for clinicians to
consider toxoplasmosis in the differential diagnosis of lymphadenopathies in
young patients with enlarged cervical lymph nodes and varying degrees of
fatigue, malaise, cough, and fever.
