Castleman's disease, a benign lymphoproliferative disorder, may be seen as a self-limited, curable unifocal process, or highly aggressive multicentric disease frequently resulting in death despite aggressive management. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma has been known to arise within the context of Castleman's disease, usually when multicentric. Hodgkin's lymphoma, however, can also arise within the context of Castleman's disease, but this is a rare process. We report a case of unifocal Castleman's disease (plasma cell variant) occurring concurrently with Hodgkin's disease in the neck of a young woman.
The presentation, workup, pathologic evaluation, and management of a young woman diagnosed with Castleman's disease occurring concurrently with Hodgkin's disease in the neck is presented and discussed.
A 32-year-old woman with a 5-year history of unifocal right cervicoparotid Castleman's disease (plasma cell variant) underwent right functional neck dissection and superficial parotidectomy for cosmetic and functional purposes. Pathologic and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed Hodgkin's lymphoma occurring in a background of the plasma cell variant of Castleman's disease. The patient subsequently underwent external beam radiation therapy as definitive management for her early-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Castleman's disease can occur as an isolated regional process in the head and neck. Furthermore, lymphoma (and specifically Hodgkin's lymphoma) can develop within regionally isolated cervical Castleman's disease. Although complete surgical excision of unifocal Castleman's disease is curative, the management of lymphoma occurring within the context of the Castleman's disease warrants a standard lymphoma workup and management strategy.
Castleman病是一种良性淋巴增生性疾病,可表现为自限性、可治愈的单灶性病变,或高度侵袭性的多中心性疾病,尽管积极治疗仍常导致死亡。已知非霍奇金淋巴瘤可在Castleman病的背景下发生,通常是在多中心性Castleman病时。然而,霍奇金淋巴瘤也可在Castleman病的背景下出现,但这是一个罕见的情况。我们报告一例年轻女性颈部单灶性Castleman病(浆细胞型)与霍奇金病同时发生的病例。
介绍并讨论一名年轻女性的病例,该患者被诊断为颈部Castleman病与霍奇金病同时发生,包括其临床表现、检查、病理评估及治疗。
一名有5年右侧颈腮腺单灶性Castleman病(浆细胞型)病史的32岁女性,因美容和功能目的接受了右侧功能性颈清扫术和腮腺浅叶切除术。病理和免疫组化分析证实霍奇金淋巴瘤发生在Castleman病浆细胞型的背景中。该患者随后接受了外照射放疗,作为其早期霍奇金淋巴瘤的确定性治疗。
Castleman病可作为头颈部孤立的局部病变出现。此外,淋巴瘤(特别是霍奇金淋巴瘤)可在局部孤立的颈部Castleman病内发生。虽然单灶性Castleman病的完全手术切除可治愈,但Castleman病背景下发生的淋巴瘤的治疗需要标准的淋巴瘤检查和治疗策略。
