Abstract:
Castleman's disease is an usually benign lymphoid tumor of uncertain etiology that generally appears as a solitary mediastinal mass. We present a case of Castleman's disease in the right chest wall of a 60-year-old woman. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a well-defined, oval mass that was early enhanced on T1-weighted images. The mass was diagnosed by percutaneous core needle biopsy with computed tomography guidance. The patient has remained well for 5 years without an increase in tumor size. We also summarize the international literature.

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
