Abstract
Three cases of mycobacterial cervical lymphadenitis in children are presented. The diagnosis and treatment are described in brief. None of the patients were from the risk groups traditionally associated with tuberculosis. With an increasing number of tuberculosis cases reported in the UK, the need for awareness of this re-emerging condition to ENT surgeons and paediatricians is stressed.Keywords
