Abstract
A 40-year-old woman was examined in August, 1984 with the symptoms of asymptomatic skin lesions, systemic superficial lymph nodes swelling with tenderness, and fever. She was diagnosed as suffering from histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis by the results of histological findings obtained from one of her enlarged cervical lymph nodes. We attempt to precisely describe the characteristics of the skin lesions as seen in this case of histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis.
