Case Report: Co-infection with cat-scratch disease and infectious mononucleosis: a rare clinical entity
This case represents the first reported instance of a pediatric patient diagnosed with concurrent CSD and IM by pathological examination. The diagnosis was based on histopathological features, special stains, and immunohistochemical findings. The coexistence of these two distinct infections highlights the importance of considering multiple etiologies when evaluating reactive lymphadenopathy.
