    Summary

    Castleman's disease (CD) management was studied in 12 HIV-negative patients. Plasmocell CD is difficult to diagnose and lacks treatment, while the hyalinovascular variant shows good surgical outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Hematology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Castleman's disease (CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder with diverse clinical presentations.
    • Understanding the distinct subtypes of CD is crucial for effective management and prognosis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present original clinical experience in managing Castleman's disease (CD).
    • To review existing literature data on CD management.
    • To characterize histological and immunophenotypical features of different CD variants.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 12 HIV-negative patients diagnosed with CD.
    • Detailed histological and immunophenotypical characterization of CD subtypes.
    • Review of literature data for comparative analysis.

    Main Results:

    • The study included 12 patients (age 18-51 years) with HIV-negative CD.
    • CD subtypes observed were plasmocell (6 patients), mixed (2 patients), and hyalinovascular (4 patients).
    • Three patients with plasmocell CD died from severe autoimmune anemia; patients with hyalinovascular CD achieved remission after surgical node removal.

    Conclusions:

    • Diagnosis of plasmocell CD requires exclusion of infections, autoimmune diseases, and lymphomas.
    • Currently, no established therapy exists for the plasmocell variant of CD.
    • Surgical management is effective for the hyalinovascular variant of CD.
