 AB    This article provides and overview of the benign causes of
       lymphadenopathy (LA) in the pediatric population. Because of the topics'
       broad nature, this review is a selective one and primarily focuses on
       benign conditions of lymph nodes that may be confused with malignant
       disorders or have been described or better defined in recent years.
       Specifically, these will include infectious LA caused by Epstein-Barr
       virus (EBV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and cat scratch disease
       (CSD), LA associated with vaccination, drug-associated LA, progressive
       transformation of germinal centers (PTGC), LA associated wtih autoimmune
       disorders, histiocytic proliferations involving lymph nodes, and
       Kawasaki disease.
