In one year, excisional lymph node biopsy was done in 54 children who presented with persistent peripheral lymph node enlargement. Tuberculosis occured in 26 cases (48%), malignancy in 18 cases (33%); in 10 cases (18.5%) no specific diagnosis was made. Clinical features were not predictive of the histological diagnosis. When the initial biopsy had been non-diagnostic, specific disease did not develop.
在一年时间里，对54名出现持续性外周淋巴结肿大的儿童进行了切除性淋巴结活检。其中26例（48%）为结核病，18例（33%）为恶性肿瘤；10例（18.5%）未做出明确诊断。临床特征无法预测组织学诊断结果。当初次活检未能明确诊断时，未出现特定疾病。
