Summary:Most tumour are located in the lymph node parenchyma.1,2 We had the occasion to observe angioma-type lesions located in the hilus of cervical lymph nodes, resected during the neck dissection procedure for buccal squamous cell carcinoma (T1N0Mx). The diagnoses of angiosarcoma and Kaposi sarcoma were not retained as the lesions did not show increased vascular and/or cellular density and atypia.1 The histogenesis of the lesions we report, of hilar development in some of the neck lymph nodes, without adenomegaly, is difficult to precise. [...]we report a case of lymph node angioma of hilar and capsular development occurring in the context of lung small cell carcinoma and superior vena cava syndrome and oral squamous cell carcinoma.
