Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Castleman's disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder with unknown etiology.
  • It is characterized by lymph node enlargement and distinctive histological features.
  • Diagnosis relies on characteristic imaging and pathological findings.

Observation:

  • Computed tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are crucial for staging.
  • MRI may reveal specific curvilinear hypointensities within affected lymph nodes.
  • This report details an unusual case with symmetrical nasopharyngeal and parapharyngeal involvement.

Findings:

  • The case presented with symmetrical lymph node enlargement in the nasopharyngeal and parapharyngeal spaces.
  • No other affected regions were identified, distinguishing it from typical presentations.

  • Advanced imaging successfully delineated the extent of the disease.

    • Implications:

    • This unusual presentation expands the known spectrum of Castleman's disease.
    • Radiological findings, particularly MRI, are vital for identifying atypical disease patterns.
    • Accurate diagnosis through imaging and pathology is essential for appropriate patient management.
