Abstract: Axillary B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) comprises a large group of heterogeneous neoplasm of lymphoid tissue and blood. The typical presentation is of a rapidly enlarging tumour mass at single or multiple nodal sites. Kikuchi Fujimoto disease (KFD) is an extremely uncommon benign and self-limiting disease. It was first described in Japan in 1972. [1] It usually affects the female. Most of the cases improve within six months period.
