Castleman's disease: unusual intrathoracic localization
1Department of Thoracic Surgery, University of Torino, S. Giovanni Battista Hospital, via Genova 3, 10126 Torino, Italy.
Abstract:
Chest-wall is a rare localization of Castleman's disease. The tumour is often diagnosed after onset of non-specific thoracic symptoms but can be occasionally detected in asymptomatic patients. Surgical removal is curative and should be conservative with no recurrences. We report a new case and we review the international literature.
