Lymphadenopathy is fairly widespread among the population and recognize multiple causes, often benign and self-limiting. We report on case about one young women with Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease or histiiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis. This is a rare self-limiting lymphadenopathy which is usually diagnosed in young women. It is a self-limiting condition, usually resolving within 2-3 months, a low recurrence rate of 3% to 4% has been reported, of unknown origin, that does not require any specific management.

The common hepatic artery aneurysms (HAA) are uncommon atherosclerotic lesions and often they are clinically silent. Their diagnosis is often difficult prior to rupture, due to nonspecific clinical presentation. We report a case of a giant aneurysm of the common hepatic artery causing obstructive jaundice through compression of the biliary tract. The presence of the lesion was confirmed with the use of spiral computed tomographic angiography. Hepatic artery aneurysm is a lesion that should be considered in cases of unexplained obstructive jaundice.
