the function of recognizing EBV-infected cells is lost, conditions are created for their unlimited proliferation with the possibility of forming benign and malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, epithelial and mesenchymal origin. Hodgkin’s lymphoma is extremely rare in children younger than 5 years old. A feature of the presented case of EBV-associated Hodgkin’s lymphoma is an earlymanifestation of the disease on the background of the absence of classic markers of EBV-infection. Verification of the diagnosis was possible only on the basis of immunohistochemical research.
