Area of Science:

  • Thoracic surgery
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Mediastinal tumors can be asymptomatic and detected incidentally.
  • Castleman's disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder with diverse clinical presentations.

Observation:

  • A 56-year-old male presented with incidentally discovered mediastinal masses.
  • Two distinct tumors were identified in the middle and posterior mediastinum.
  • The patient was asymptomatic prior to diagnosis.

Findings:

  • Surgical exploration revealed two resectable mediastinal tumors.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the plasma-cell type of Castleman's tumor.
  • Complete tumor resection was achieved.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of routine imaging in detecting asymptomatic mediastinal masses.
  • Complete surgical excision is a viable treatment for localized Castleman's disease.
  • Accurate histopathological diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management of mediastinal tumors.
