Abstract
- Castleman's disease is a rare disorder that is characterized by lymphoid hyperplasia. It may present as an asymptomatic involvement of one lymph node group or as a multicentric disease with systemic features. Here we report a 53 year old female patient with histopathologically proven cervical Castleman's disease of the mixed type who presented with neck lymphadenopathy and was treated with a complete excision of the neck mass without complications.
