Abstract: We report a 48-year-old man, presented with inguinal
lymphadenopathy and low-grade fever. A biopsy revealed
effacement of the whole node by marked non-necrotizing
granulomatous reaction. there were scattered large cells
with few classic Reed-Sternberg cells between the granulomas.
Immunohistochemistry reveals strong reaction of
CD15 and CD30, and negative staining for CD20. These
findings confirmed the diagnosis of Hodgkin's lymphoma
with remarkable granulomatous reaction that almost
masked the malignant component.
Key words: granulomatous reaction,Hodgkin's lymphoma,
non-necrotizing granuloma
