Jugulodigastric lymph node liquefaction refers to the process where lymph nodes located in the jugulodigastric region (near the angle of the jaw) become filled with pus or fluid due to infection or inflammation. This can occur in conditions such as bacterial infections or certain cancers, leading to the breakdown of the lymphatic tissue. The liquefaction may indicate an ongoing immune response and can result in symptoms like swelling, pain, or fever. Diagnosis usually involves imaging or biopsy, and treatment may require drainage or antibiotic therapy.
