Abstract
A case of primary Kaposi's sarcoma of the lymph node (single node involvement) is reported on here. It occurred in a white, Italian boy 10 years of age. An extensive review of the literature showed that this was only the second childhood case of the disease among non-acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related people of the Western world.
