Piringer Kuchinka lymphadenitis or toxoplasmic lymphadenitis is diagnosed histologically and confirmed by serological tests. Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic infection caused by an opportunistic protozoan: Toxoplasma gondii, often asymptomatic in the immunocompetent subject, without recourse to specific treatment. We report a case of Piringer Kuchinka adenitis revealing active toxoplasmosis in an immunocompetent child.
Author Keywords: lymph node, toxoplasma, Piringer-Kuchinka lymphadenopathy.

La lymphadénite de Piringer Kuchinka ou la lymphadénite toxoplasmique est diagnostiquée histologiquement et confirmée par des tests sérologiques. La toxoplasmose est une infection parasitaire due à un protozoaire opportuniste: Toxoplasma gondii, souvent asymptomatique chez le sujet immunocompétent, sans recours à un traitement spécifique. Nous rapportons un cas d’adénite de Piringer Kuchinka dévoilant une toxoplasmose évolutive chez un enfant immunocompétent.
