Castleman's disease (CD) is a rare entity, characterized by lymph node follicles hyperplasia. It rarely occurs in children. We present a case of a 9 year old girl with CD in the parotid region. This disease, although it's low incidence in pediatric population, may mimic a malignant neoplasm and should be a differential diagnosis in cervical masses.

La enfermedad de Castleman es una rara entidad, caracterizada por la hiperplasia de los folículos linfoides. Excepcionalmente afecta a los niños. Presentamos el caso de una niña de 9 años con enfermedad de Castleman en la región parotídea. A pesar de su baja incidencia en la población pediátrica, esta afección puede simular una neoplasia y debe ser tenida en cuenta entre los diagnósticos diferenciales de una masa cervical.
