    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Thoracic Surgery
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Castleman's disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder.
    • Hyaline vascular Castleman's disease is the most common subtype.
    • Pleural involvement is uncommon.

    Observation:

    • A 71-year-old male presented with a Castleman's pseudotumor (hyaline vascular type) in the left pleural cavity.
    • The pseudotumor was located above the apex of the left lung.
    • The patient had a history of postprimary pulmonary tuberculosis with tuberculous empyema and hematogenous dissemination.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of hyaline vascular Castleman's pseudotumor.
    • The pseudotumor's development was associated with underlying postprimary pulmonary tuberculosis.
    • Evidence of tuberculous empyema and hematogenous dissemination was noted.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights an unusual presentation of Castleman's disease.
    • It underscores the importance of considering Castleman's disease in the differential diagnosis of pleural masses, especially in patients with a history of tuberculosis.
    • Management requires a multidisciplinary approach involving thoracic surgery, pulmonology, and pathology.
