Abstract: Introduction: Lymph nodes are normal structures, and certain lymph nodes may be palpable in a healthy patient, particularly in a young child. Conversely, the presence of abnormally enlarged lymph nodes (?lymphadenopathy?) can be a clue to a serious underlying systemic disease, and the differential diagnosis of lymphadenopathy can be broad. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is particularly helpful workup in cases of lymphadenopathy. Objective: To study various pathological lesions of lymph node in pediatric age group. Material & Methods: This was an observational study over a period of 3 years, i.e from September 1, 2018 to August 31,2021 in the Department of Pathology. Total number of cases during study period was 258. Patients of age
