Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of immune accessory follicular dendritic cells and may be associated with Castleman's disease which is a known precursor to follicular dendritic cell sarcomas. We report a case of a follicular dendritic cell sarcoma arising in Castleman's disease in a 63-year-old man who presented with a large posterior mediastinal mass, which required a radical pneumonectomy for complete resection.
滤泡树突状细胞肉瘤是一种罕见的免疫辅助滤泡树突状细胞恶性肿瘤,可能与血管滤泡性淋巴结增生症有关,后者是滤泡树突状细胞肉瘤的已知前体。我们报告了一例发生在血管滤泡性淋巴结增生症的滤泡树突状细胞肉瘤,患者为 63 岁男性,表现为巨大的后纵隔肿块,需要进行根治性肺切除术才能完全切除。
