Histologically, hyaline vascular (IIV type, % 90), plasma cell (PC type % ¡0) and mixed types were identij'ied. This case was diagnosed by supraclavicular lymph node biopsy ( PC' type). Because of its unusual localization and rare histologic type, we evaluated the literature and reported the case.[Journal of Turgut Özal Medical Center 1(2): 149-153, 1994[
