  • Lymph Node Toxoplasmosis follow up of 237 histologically diagnosed and serologically verified cases
    Acta Medica Scandinavica, 2009
    Co-Authors: Markku Miettinen, Lauri Saxen, E Saxen
    Abstract:

    The clinical features, histology and follow-up of Lymph Node Toxoplasmosis are presented in the light of 237 histologically and serologically verified cases. Lymph Node Toxoplasmosis is a disease with mild symptoms, and in most patients the enlarged Lymph Nodes were the only sign. Three fourths of the patients were women and the majority were under 40 years of age. The clinical picture was not specific, but suggestive features included a relatively short history, presence of the Nodes in the neck and relative Lymphocytosis in peripheral blood. Histological changes in the Lymph Nodes were characteristic. The most important features were strong hyperplasia but preserved general structure with small groups of epithelioid cells both in the paracortical area and in the germinal centers. Strands of monocytoid cells were usually found. 80% of the cases with typical histology also had high antibody titers, and in more than 85% of the cases with high antibodies, the Lymph Nodes presented a typical picture of Toxoplasmosis. The follow-up revealed that Lymph Node Toxoplasmosis. The follow-up revealed that Lymph Node Toxoplasmosis is a disease without complications, nor is there any connection with malignant Lymphomas.

  • a case of acquired Lymph Node Toxoplasmosis in the submandibular region
    Japanese Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1994
    Co-Authors: Ryuji Kaneko, Yasuyuki Goto, Yasuhisa Nakai, Manabu Takeuchi, Minoru Ueda
    Abstract:

    Toxoplasmosis is a parasite infection caused by the obligate parasite, Toxoplasma gondii. In several types of acquired Toxoplasmosis, Lymph Node toxoplasma is very frequent and Lymphadenopathy is often the only clinical finding present.This paper describes a 31-year-old male patient who presented with swelling in the submandibular Lymph Nodes. He was diagnosed to have Lymph Node Toxoplasmosis by serological investigations (IHA and IFA).The patient was treated with sulfamethoxazole 1600mg/day and trimethoprim 320mg/day for 40 days. There was a decrease in the size of the submental Lymph Nodes and the toxoplasma antibody titer. This infection was supposed to have been acquired from a pet cat.
