Introduction: Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD), also called histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis, is a rare that occurs with swollen lymph nodes and associated fever. This in both children adults. Aim: The aim of our work was to review the literature remind family doctors, otolaryngologists, hematologists rheumatologists about this should be included differential diagnosis long-term cervical lym...

Kikuchi-Fujmoto disease (KFD), also known as "histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis", is a rare lymphadenitis of unknown origin, but with an excellent prognosis. It is more common in Asia, but isolated cases are also reported in America, Africa and Europe. The disease can have an acute or subacute course, usually develops in 1 to 3 weeks, with spontaneous resolution in 1-4 months. The main clin...

INTRODUCTION Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease (KFD) is a benign, self-limited, inflammatory disorder, first reported in Japan. This condition is more prevalent among women and typically occurs in the third decade of life. It normally manifests as persistent, isolated cervical adenopathy with a recurrence rate of 3%. The identification of this condition is of high significance, given the risk of misdiag...

Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD) or histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis was first described in Japan in 1972. It is described as a benign syndrome most commonly involving cervical lymphadenopathy, fever, and night sweats. The etiology of KFD is unknown but it is thought to be triggered by an autoimmune or viral process with an exaggerated T-cell-mediated immune response. KFD can mimic other ser...

Phase unwrapping in L-dimensional topologies is an important problem that has several applications in radar and satellite imaging. Sum product algorithm (belief propagation) gives excellent results for the phase unwrapping problem. In this work, we present a gradient smoothing technique that uses higher order surface models to produce very smooth surfaces and report an improvement in the soluti...
