Extensive Bilateral Cervicofacial Lymphadenitis Caused by Atypical Mycobacterium.
Non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lymphadenitis typically presents as a unilateral, non-tender, slowly enlarging cervical, submandibular, or pre-auricular lymph node in children. Disseminated NTM infection is most often seen in immunocompromised children. Here, we present an unusual case of extensive bilateral cervical and retropharyngeal lymphadenitis caused by Mycobacterium Avium Complex (MAC) in an ostensibly immunocompetent pediatric patient.
