Abstract

Castleman's disease, also known as angiofollicular hyperplasia or giant lymph node hyperplasia, usually occurs in the mediastinum and relatively rarely occurs in the head and neck region. Recently, we encountered a case of Castleman's disease occurring in the left side of the neck in a 30-year-old woman. Histopathologically, the tumor was diagnosed as Castleman's disease, hyaline-vascular type. The prognosis was fairly good after surgical treatment, and there is no recurrence at present. We describe this case with some comments based on the literature.
