Publication Castleman's disease: Unilateral cervical involvement and imaging findings a case report(Sage Publications Inc, 2007-06-01) Atahan, S.; Hakyemez, B.; Doğan, Nurullah; HAKYEMEZ, BAHATTİN; Topal, N. B.; BOLCA TOPAL, NAİLE; Parlak, M.; PARLAK, MÜFİT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi; 0000-0003-1455-6918; AAI-2327-2021; AAI-2318-2021; AAG-8521-2021Castleman's disease is an idiopathic lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by massive enlargement of lymph nodes. It may have a unifocal or multifocal presentation; the mediastinum is the most common site (70%). Patients with cervical disease usually have unifocal involvement (90%). The main problem posed by cervical Castleman's disease is that it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of cervical tumors. This report describes a patient who had unifocal Castleman's disease on the left side of the neck, and discusses the differential diagnosis with findings on magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography and ultrasonography.
