Overview
Common risk factors in the development of lymphadenopathy include people at risk of infections as seen in high-risk sexual behavior for HIV,Cytomegalovirus, IV drug users, recent blood transfusion. HIV is a lymphotropic virus that activates lymph node remodeling. Lymph nodes that clinically manifest as persistent at a pathological stage Three distinct stages of lymphadenopathy: stage I, explosive follicular disease Big germinal centers of hyperplasia; stage II, germinal centers depletion of lymphocytes and central involution; step III, proliferation Within the lymph nodes, blood vessels
