Abstract :
Interfollicular Hodgkin s lymphoma represents an unusual pattern of focal involvement of interfollicular zones by Hodgkin s lymphoma along with florid reactive follicular hyperplasia. It is often mistakenly diagnosed as a reactive change. We report a case of a 36 years old male with persistent lymphadenitis for three years, who was finally diagnosed as Interfollicular Hodgkin s lymphoma after being incorrectly diagnosed as reactive lymphadenitis. This case is reported in view of the unusual pattern of Hodgkin s lymphoma as well as its misdiagnosis as a benign lesion
