ABSTRACT

Immunoblastic lymphadenopathy, although it resembles Hodgkin’s disease, is a distinct hyperimmune disorder apparently of the B-cell system. It’s a disorder characterized by a sudden onset of constitutional symptoms and lymphadenopathy. Diagnosis requires a lymph node biopsy that shows architectural effacement, absence of germinal centers, arborization of post capillary venules, and a polymorphous infiltrate that includes immunoblasts. Laboratory features include autoimmune hemolytic anemia and polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia.
