Revista medico-chirurgicala a Societatii de Medici si Naturalisti din Iasi·2016

Castleman's disease, a rare lymphoid tissue disorder, can occur in the retroperitoneum. This case highlights isolated retroperitoneal Castleman's disease in a 34-year-old male, diagnosed via surgical resection.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pathology
  • Rare Diseases

Background:

  • Castleman's disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder with unknown etiology.
  • It commonly affects the mediastinum, while retroperitoneal involvement is infrequent and often linked to generalized disease.

Observation:

  • A 34-year-old male presented with a palpable abdominal mass.
  • Imaging and subsequent exploratory laparotomy revealed an isolated retroperitoneal mass.

Findings:

  • The resected tumor was diagnosed as hyaline-vascular type Castleman's disease.
  • This represents a rare instance of isolated retroperitoneal Castleman's disease.

Implications:

  • This case expands the understanding of Castleman's disease presentation.
