Cervical Castleman disease: CT study with angiographic correlation.

D B Koslin, L L Berland, B C Sekar

    Radiology
    |July 1, 1986

    Summary

    Computed tomography and angiography revealed a hypervascular cervical mass in a patient with Castleman disease, a rare benign lymph node hyperplasia. This case highlights imaging features for differential diagnosis of neck masses.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Castleman disease is an uncommon lymphoproliferative disorder.
    • Cervical Castleman disease presents as benign lymph node hyperplasia.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with clinical features of cervical Castleman disease.
    • Computed tomographic (CT) scans demonstrated a densely enhancing cervical mass.
    • External carotid angiography revealed a hypervascular mass with a capillary blush.

    Findings:

    • The imaging findings (CT and angiography) are characteristic of Castleman disease.
    • The differential diagnosis for the cervical mass was extensive, including various neoplastic and inflammatory conditions.
    • Histopathological confirmation is essential for definitive diagnosis.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering Castleman disease in the differential diagnosis of cervical masses.
    • Radiological features can aid in differentiating Castleman disease from other pathologies.
    • Further research into the specific imaging characteristics of Castleman disease subtypes is warranted.
