Biographical Date Spacing

error

"The condition was first described in 1972 by Masahiro Kikuchi (1934-2012), a professor of histopathology and haematopathology, at Fukuoka University medical school. Ironically, in view of his specialism, his cause of death was lymphoma ^6,7. Independently it was described in the same year by Y Fujimoto ⁹."
