    La fiebre persistente y las adenopatías en pacientes jóvenes representan un desafío diagnóstico complejo debido a la amplia gama de posibles etiologías, que incluyen infecciones, enfermedades autoinmunes y neoplasias. Este artículo revisa la literatura existente para identificar las causas más comunes, examina los métodos diagnósticos más efectivos y explora las estrategias de manejo para distinguir entre condiciones benignas y malignas. Se presta especial atención a la parotiditis como una causa infecciosa significativa en esta población.

    Persistent fever and lymphadenopathy in young patients present a complex diagnostic challenge due to the wide range of possible etiologies, including infections, autoimmune diseases, and neoplasms. This article reviews the existing literature to identify the most common causes, examines the most effective diagnostic methods, and explores management strategies for distinguishing between benign and malignant conditions. Special attention is given to parotitis as a significant infectious cause in this population.
