Differential diagnostics of cervical lymphadenitis in children

doc.MUDr.Ludmila Vyhnánková, CSc.
ORL specialista, Praha

This article deals with differential diagnostics of cervical lymphadenites in children. These inflammations can be divided into groups

by etiology, localization of nodes and time course. There are individual types of inflammations that occur most frequently, their clinical

symptoms, diagnostics and therapy. Furthermore the tumours of neck that should be taken into account while making differential diagnosis

are referred to. The position of a paediatrician is unique as he usually knows his patients from their birth. Therefore he can assess

well dynamics of the process and in cooperation with other specialists (an ENT specialist, a haematologist, a paediatric oncologist) can

achieve a timely diagnostics and therapy.
