Abstract
- We present a case of hyaline vascular type Castleman disease involving the bilateral cervical lymph nodes. To our knowledge, no previous case of this localized form of the disease has been reported. Dynamic CT demonstrated a hypervascular pattern of enhancement, with central less enhanced areas that corresponded histologically to fibrosis. For the diagnosis of this uncommon lymph node disease, these findings might be helpful.
