Lateral superficial suppurative lymphadenitis in an infant. Lymphadenopathy and surrounding edema are shown on an axial fat-suppressed T2-weighted image (a), and a non-enhancing center on post-contrast axial (b) and fat-suppressed sagittal (d) T1-weighted images with low ADC (c) (arrows). Imaging was consistent with suppurative lymphadenitis. Purulence was found during surgery and Staphylococcus aureus in pus cultures. Image modified from ref. [8]
