Abstract:
Castleman's disease (CD) or giant node hyperplasia is a rare benign disease of unknown etiology characterized by lymphoid hyperplasia. Although the most common site of the disease is the mediastinum, very few cases occurring in lymph nodes elsewhere have been reported in English literature, including only 10 intramuscular cases. We report a case of unicentric CD of the hyaline vascular type in a 30 year female located in the right scapular region. This case has been reported due to its extreme rarity and also highlights the need for including CD in the differential diagnosis of soft-tissue tumors.
