Extranodal thyroid lymphomatous involvement is rare in childhood. We report he re 2 children, 1 with vertical transmission-acquired human immunodeficiency vir us (HIV), presenting with lymphomatous infiltration of the thyroid gland at diag nosis. One child had infra-clinical endocrine impairment and both responded well to chemoth- erapy. Although the cases are too scarce to be affirmative, thyroid gland invo lvement doesn’t seem to alter the good prognosis of childhood Burkitt’s lympho ma. The third child’s cancer in frequency is Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas. Presenting as the initial AIDS event in 1 patient, this case report also highlights the ne ed to systematically propose antiretroviral therapy in vertically HIV infected c hildren.
