We report a retrospective study of 42 cases of lymph node tuberculosis. We noted symptoms of tuberculosis impregnation in 92%, cervical localization in 71%, positive tuberculin intra-dermo-reaction in 77%, and accelerated erythrocyte sedimentation rate in 73% of the cases. Koch bacillus was detected in expectoration, urine or gastric liquid at the rate of 11% of the cases. Lymph node function was suggestive in 4 out of 12 patients, showing giant cells with or without caseum. Lymph node biopsy, performed in 32 patients, was contributive in 94% of them. Another tuberculous localization was found in 14 cases mainly pulmonary (8 cases).
