“…11,17,[27][28][29][30]31 Based on the review of the literature, it can be seen that our three cases of CD are rare in terms of their abdominal/pelvic location. It is evident that abdominal and pelvic CD have some clinical manifestations that may be useful in diagnosing and localizing the tumors.…”

“…The hyaline-vascular (HV) pattern was initially described in 1954. 18 In 1972, Keller et al 19 proposed two histologic subtypes, the HV and Of]print requests to: H. Kiguchi (Received for publication on Sept. 5,1994; accepted on Jan. 27,1995) plasma cell (PC) types. The HV type of CD presents as a large solitary mass without signs or symptoms.…”

Castleman's disease of the abdomen and pelvis: Report of three cases and a review of the literature

et al. 1995

Three cases of Castleman's disease (CD) of the abdomen and pelvis are reported. Tumoral lesions were located in the lymph nodes of the head of the pancreas, the gastropancreatic fold, and around the left iliac artery. Histologically, all the tumoral lesions demonstrated the hyalinevascular type of CD. This unusual presentation made CD difficult to diagnose preoperatively, since these lesions more closely resembled malignant tumors on computed tomography and angiography. We discuss the problems of diagnosing and classifying CD, together with a review of the literature.

“…This disease has no predilection for age or sex [11], and usually presents as an asymptomatic mediastinal mass found on routine chest X-ray [6, 9, Two distinct histologic subtypes of Castleman's dis ease are identified: the hyaline vascular type and the plasma cell type [7], The plasma cell type comprises only 9% of total cases and is more likely to present with con stitutional symptoms [10], such as chronic refractory anemia, fever and hypergammaglobulinemia [10,13].…”

The obstetrician is rarely confronted with a pregnant patient who presents with a large suspicious pelvic mass. Diagnostic tools are not always of value and laparotomy may be performed for obstetric and histopathologic reasons. In this article we present an interesting case of an unusual pelvic mass in pregnancy secondary to benign lymphoepithelial disease (Castleman’s disease). We could not find a case similar to the one reported in the medical literature.

“…The more common (91%) hyaline vascular type usually presents as an isolated tumor mass, frequently asymptomatic, occasionally giving rise to symptoms due to mass effect and is characterized by small hyaline vascu lar follicles and interfollicular capillary proliferation. The less common (9%) plasma cell type is characterized by large hyperplastic follicles with intervening sheets of plasma cells and typically has been associated with a num ber of systemic manifestations including fever, anemia, hyperglobulinemia, thrombocytosis, spenomegaly, abnor mal liver function and peripheral neuropathy [6][7][8][9]. More recently, a mixed hyaline vascular and plasma cell type lymph node hyperplasia has been reported [ 10].…”

Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis Associated with Multicentric Angiofollicular Lymph Node Hyperplasia

A 14-year-old boy presented with fever, anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, generalized lymphadenopathy and nephrotic syndrome. Lymph node biopsy showed angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia (generalized Castleman’s disease) of the plasma cell type. Kidney biopsy showed membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis type 1. Complete remission was achieved with corticosteroid treatment and repeat kidney biopsy 22 months later showed complete resolution of the renal pathology. The association between membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and multicentric angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia, plasma cell type, has not previously been reported.
