ABSTRACT
Castleman disease (CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disease. Hyaline-vascular type unicentric CD has a good prognosis if completely resected during surgery. However, follicular dendritic cell proliferative lesions have the potential for recurrence and metastasis. A 22-year-old man was referred to our hospital with the chief complaint of nausea and vomiting. These symptoms were caused by a right mesocolonic tumor pushing the duodenum. The patient underwent laparoscopic tumorectomy and complete surgical excision. The postoperative course was uneventful, with no complications. Pathological examination confirmed that the tumor was an enlarged lymph node, typical of hyaline vascular-type CD; however, follicular dendritic cell proliferative lesions were noted. We report a rare case of hyaline-vascular-type CD with follicular dendritic cell proliferative lesions associated with malignancy, as limited case reports exist on this particular disease.
