Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Castleman's disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder.
  • Retroperitoneal Castleman's disease is particularly uncommon.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a case of retroperitoneal Castleman's disease.
  • To highlight the importance of considering this rare tumor in differential diagnoses.

Main Methods:

  • A 57-year-old woman presented with microscopic hematuria.
  • Computed tomography revealed a retroperitoneal mass.
  • Surgical resection and histopathological examination were performed.

Main Results:

  • The resected mass was diagnosed as hyaline-vascular type Castleman's disease.
  • The tumor was located in the retroperitoneum.

Conclusions:

  • Retroperitoneal Castleman's disease, though rare, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of retroperitoneal masses.
  • Early diagnosis and surgical intervention are crucial for management.
