Castleman's disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder which may be confused with other causes of lymphadenopathy.
Here we report a case of unicentric Castleman's disease presenting with cervical lymphadenopathy. The patient was treated with complete surgical excision of lesion and was disease free at the time of reporting this article. This case has been reported for its rarity.
Though castleman's disease is a relatively rare entity it should be strongly considered in the differential diagnosis of cervical lymphadenopathy.
卡斯特曼病是一种罕见的淋巴增生性疾病,可能会与其他导致淋巴结病的病因相混淆。
在此,我们报告一例以颈部淋巴结病为表现的单中心卡斯特曼病病例。患者接受了病变的完整手术切除,在撰写本文时疾病无复发。该病例因其罕见性而被报告。
尽管卡斯特曼病是一种相对罕见的疾病,但在颈部淋巴结病的鉴别诊断中应高度考虑。
