Abstract

The authors report the case of a young white girl in whom the diagnosis of lymphoblastic leukaemia was made at the age of 5 years. Chemotherapy induced remission and long term surveillance began. Seven years after the onset of the first disease this girl died of an undiagnosed illness characterised by multiple nodules in both lungs. The autopsy gave the diagnosis of Kaposi''s sarcoma.
