Introduction:
A case of follicular dendritic cell tumour arising in a lymph-node with Castleman's disease, hyaline-vascular type and associated with a vascular lesion of the capsule is described.
Materials And Methods:
The lesion is documented by immunohistochemistry.
Results:
The patient is a 57 year old man with a large extrathoracic mass showing the combination of the lesions previously mentioned. In addition, he was found to have metastatic deposits in a cervical lymph-node and in the bone. He underwent radiotherapy and died shortly after with post-therapeutical complications.
Discussion:
The present case constitutes the second report of follicular dendritic cell tumour associated with Castleman's disease and a benign vascular lesion. This association is discussed.
