Abstract
Kikuchi disease is a rare condition characterized by fever and persistent lymphadenopathy. Its aetiology is unknown, but it has been associated with viral, bacterial, and protozoal agents. We report the case of a 15-year old boy who grew Pasteurella multocida from blood cultures with Kikuchi disease confirmed by histopathologic lymph node examination.
