  • <div> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td style="padding: 0in 9.0pt 0in 9.0pt;"> <p><span>We report a rare case of a 28-year-old male presenting with bilateral axillary lymphadenopathy persisting for nine months, accompanied by low-grade fever and loss of appetite. Initial fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) suggested granulomatous lymphadenitis. However, subsequent excisional biopsy confirmed classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) revealed a diagnosis of nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma, type C. PET-CT showed hypermetabolic lymphadenopathy on both sides of the diaphragm. </span></p> <p><span>This case underscores the importance of considering Hodgkin lymphoma in the differential diagnosis of isolated axillary lymphadenopathy and the potential for misdiagnosis when relying solely on FNAC. </span></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div>
