Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD) (histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis), is a rare disorder, predominantly affects young women, characterized by servical lymphadenopathy; usually accompanied with mild fever and is self limited. It is frequently seen in Asian people and is rare in Turkey. Patients should be evaluated with excisional biopsy to avoid misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment. Treatment in Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease is symptomatic. Patients should be followed-up for several years to survey the possibility of the development of systemic lupus eritamatosus (SLE). We present a case of a 25-year-old woman who had been admitted with fatique and fever accompanying with cervical lymphadenopathy, with KFD diagnosis after lymph node biopsy.
