“…CD has been diagnosed within variable primary sites, including the mediastinal, intra-abdominal, cervical, axillary, retroperitoneal or inguinal lymph nodes [ 7 , 15 ]. Rarely, UCD presents in unusual sites, such as the lungs, orbits, mouth, tonsil, nasopharynx, liver and small intestine [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ]. Single-site involvement of renal parenchyma is extremely rare in this disease, with only a little relevant literature published.…”

Castleman disease (CD) is an unusual heterogeneous lymphoproliferative disorder that has been classified based on either clinical presentation and disease course or histologic features. Clinically, CD is divided into a unicentric CD (UCD) type and multicentric CD (MCD) type according to the extent of lymph node region involvement and the absence or presence of systemic symptoms. Histologically, it can be categorized into hyaline vascular (HV) type, plasma cell (PC) type and mixed type. The majority of HV-type CD involves a solitary lymph node, and excision surgery is often curative. On the contrary, MCD is a progressive and often fatal disease with lymphadenopathy in multiple nodes, and systemic therapy is needed. Herein we report a unique case of HV-type CD presenting as a single renal mass in a patient with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Despite the rarity, CD should be included in the differential diagnosis of solitary renal mass lesions. An accurate diagnosis is important to avoid unnecessarily risky or extensive operations.

“…The most common site of presentation is in the mediastinum (in 86% of cases), followed by the neck (in 6% of cases) 3 . Less commonly, cases have been reported in the head and neck region, including the parotid gland 8 , submandibular gland 9 and within a lymph node in the buccal mucosa 10 .…”

Castleman's disease is an uncommon benign disease that causes progressive lymph node enlargement. We report 12 cases of Castleman's disease in the head and neck region in a retrospective review of the medical records of all patients with the pathological diagnosis of Castleman's disease during the period of 1993 through 2002. In the 12 patients, the neck was the most commonly involved site with 9 (75%) cases. Level III was the most common subsite (five cases). The most common sign in our study was an asymptomatic neck mass. No patient had any past histories that required medical attention. Preoperative work up such as fine-needle aspiration and radiographic study was not helpful for diagnostic confirmation. The histopathologic evaluation was the only way to make a definitive diagnosis. The histopathologic subtype of our study was hyaline-vascular type. Excision was curative for all cases. There was no evidence of recurrence with a minimum follow-up duration of 24 months.
