Histological description of the lymphadenopathy related to Toscana virus infection. Report of a case

We herein present a case in which lymphadenopathy preceded the onset of meningitis. The excised lymph node showed a non-specific mixed-type lymphoid hyperplasia, with follicular hyperplasia, sinusal expansion and paracortical involvement. We also demonstrated the presence of viral protein and viral RNA in the lymph node tissue.
