Abstract:
A 17-year-old boy with fever and cervical lymphadenopathy developed multiple-organ failure and died three weeks after hospital admission. A lymph node biopsy specimen demonstrated a florid immunoblastic infiltrate that was suspicious for a malignant lymphoma. By using immunoperoxidase and molecular biologic techniques, evidence was presented for an Epstein-Barr virus-associated lymphoproliferative disorder.
