Abstract

Image guided fine needle aspiration from the supraclavicular lymph node of a patient with prior Kaposi sarcoma diagnosis was performed. In the aspiration cytology large tissue fragments and small cell clusters were seen. In looser clusters spindle cells with round to oval nuclei with light blue cytoplasms were seen and Kaposi sarcoma diagnosis was given. Fine needle aspiration cytology findings of Kaposi sarcoma in lymph nodes is reviewed with the literature.
