Negative Correlation Between Serum Ferritin and CD4+ Lymphocytes: A Retrospective Study on Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease. [PDF]
This retrospective cohort study indicates that patients with Kikuchi–Fujimoto disease demonstrated immunosuppression characterized by decreased counts of circulating CD3+ and CD4+ lymphocytes. Moreover, serum ferritin levels were inversely correlated with CD4+ lymphocyte counts, suggesting a potential role of ferritin in immune dysregulation in Kikuchi–

Localised Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease With Mediastinal Lymphadenopathy: A Case Initially Mimicking Malignant Lymphoma on Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration Cytology. [PDF]
We report a rare case of isolated mediastinal Kikuchi–Fujimoto disease (KFD) in a 37‐year‐old woman, which was initially misinterpreted as malignant lymphoma based on EBUS‐TBNA cytology. Definitive diagnosis was achieved through video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery, revealing characteristic massive necrosis and histiocytic infiltration.
