Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pathology
  • Pediatrics

Background:

  • Castleman's disease (CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder of unknown etiology.
  • It most commonly affects the mediastinum, with hyaline vascular type being predominant in head and neck regions (98%).
  • Pediatric head and neck CD is exceptionally rare, with limited reported cases.

Observation:

  • A rare case of intraparotid Castleman's disease in a child is presented.
  • The case highlights the diagnostic challenges and rarity of CD in the pediatric head and neck.
  • Detailed review of clinical presentation, histopathology, and imaging findings.

Findings:

  • Hyaline vascular type is the most common histologic subtype in head and neck CD.
  • Differential diagnosis includes reactive lymphadenopathy, lymphoproliferative disorders, and metastasis.

  • Intraparotid CD in children requires careful evaluation and multidisciplinary management.

    • Implications:

    • This case expands the understanding of Castleman's disease presentation in pediatric head and neck.
    • Highlights the importance of considering rare diagnoses in pediatric head and neck masses.
    • Emphasizes the need for thorough histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment planning.
