Lymphadenopathy, one of the most common clinical signs in pediatrics, encompasses a broad etiological spectrum, posing significant challenges in differential diagnosis. The release of the Expert consensus on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of lymphadenopathy in children (2026) has sparked extensive discussion among pediatricians across China. This review aims to provide an in-depth interpretation and expansion of the core content of the consensus, focus on the difficult issues in clinical practice, and further discuss some unfinished contents. The article will thoroughly explore the definition of lymphadenopathy, refined interpretation of imaging examinations, application of "potential diagnostic clues", recognition of "alarm signals" for malignancies, and the evolving pathogen spectrum of infectious lymphadenopathy along with corresponding diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. This paper seeks to assist clinicians in better understanding and applying the consensus, thereby enhancing the diagnostic and therapeutic standards for pediatric lymphadenopathy.
