Castleman's disease, a rare condition of uncertain etiology clinically presents in isolated form or as a multicentric disease. The multicentric form can develop malignancies such as Kaposi's sarcoma or lymphomas. We present a case of Castleman's disease with coexisting interfollicular Hodgkin's lymphoma that was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. This case report highlights the fact that an occult lymphoma has to be ruled out in persistent or recurrent Castleman's disease.
卡斯特leman病是一种病因不明的罕见疾病，临床上以孤立形式或多中心疾病形式出现。多中心形式可发展为恶性肿瘤，如卡波西肉瘤或淋巴瘤。我们报告一例经免疫组织化学证实的伴有滤泡间霍奇金淋巴瘤的卡斯特leman病。本病例报告强调了在持续性或复发性卡斯特leman病中必须排除隐匿性淋巴瘤这一事实。
