Abstract
A 25-year-old Filipino woman presented with sudden massive enlargement of a deep cervical lymph node on two occasions: during adequate treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis and again 2 years after completion of therapy. Although this immunologic phenomenon is well known in childhood tuberculosis, occurrence in adults should also be recognized.
