Enlargement of lymph nodes by hyperplasia of follicular (germinal) centers.



In FOLLICULAR HYPERPLASIA (increase in cell number), the hyperplastic germinal center contains a normal mixture of varibly sized lymphocytes, plasma cells, and macrophages, as well as a few dendritic reticular cells. No one lymphocyte type predominates as in lymphoma.



FOLLICULAR


* rheumatoid arthritis
* giant lymph node hyperplasia (Castleman's disease)
* AIDS (persistent generalized lymphadenopathy)*
* idiopathic (most common)

In SINUS HYPERPLASIA the sinuses become distended and filled with histiocyte/macrophages and some plasma cells.

2. Kimura’s Disease:


3.** Whipple Disease:


4. Virus-Associated hemorrhagic syndrome


5. Dermatopathic lymphadenitis:


6. Autoimmune lymphproliferative syndrome:


7 . Mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome: Kawasaki’s

In DIFFUSE HYPERPLASIA the lymph node architecture is diffusely effaced by sheets of small lymphocytes, and a few scattered immunoblasts and macrophages.
