description Kikuchi disease (KD) or also known as Kikuchi Fujimoto disease is named after scientists Kikuchi and Fujimoto who describe the disease in Japan in 1972. KD originally reported from Asia but later case reports from different regions of world have been published. It is a benign condition of necrotizing histiocytic lymphadenitis which mimic like Lymphoma, diagnosis of KD is based on histo-pathological findings from lymphnodes.
