Clinical Evaluation and Outcomes of Mesenteric Lymphadenopathy in Children: A Cross-Sectional Analysis

In children, ML is predominantly benign and self-limiting, and in most cases, it resolves without medical intervention.

This study underscored the importance of conservative management and highlighted the need for further research with larger cohorts and extended follow-up periods to explore rare etiologies and long-term outcomes.
