Lymphadenopathy
Lymphadenopathy is a term meaning "disease of the lymph nodes." When the infection is of the lymph nodes themselves, it is called lymphadenitis, but when the infection is of the lymph channels, it is called lymphangitis.Enlarged lymph nodes are commonly referred to as glands, as in "swollen glands". However, they do not produce secretions and therefore, by definition, are not glands. The root "Adeno" literally means glands. Therefore the term lymphadenopathy should be abandoned, in favor of "lymph node enlargement"
