We present a case of 35 years old female with history of multiple swellings in neck since 1 month duration. On examination patient had painless bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy. No other ENT manifestations noted. Lymphnode biopsy revealed SHML. Abdominal scan and chest X-ray was done which was normal.
