Abstract:
Castleman's disease, also known as angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia, is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder, with unicentric or multicentric variety. Herein, we present an unusual case of unicentric Castleman disease in a 19-year-old boy presenting as a left posterior mediastinal mass with supraclavicular extension, a rare form of presentation, with very few cases reported in the past. It can be misdiagnosed as other malignant pathology and mismanaged as in our case; hence, a high index of suspicion is necessary.
