“…To the best of our knowledge, only three cases of lacrimal CD have been reported in the literature. Lacrimal gland biopsies in two of these three cases revealed that they corresponded to the hyaline vascular type, while a salivary gland biopsy of the third case revealed that the patient corresponded to the plasma cell type (22-24). Thus, it appeared unlikely that the lacrimal lesions were manifestations of MCD.…”

A 59-year-old man presented with multiple dark red erythemas with induration, anemia, and polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia. A skin biopsy revealed the infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells and he was initially diagnosed with multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD). Glucocorticoid treatment was only partially effective. Four years later, the patient's bilateral lacrimal glands gradually became enlarged and a biopsy revealed dense lymphocyte and plasma cell infiltration with an IgG4+/IgG+ plasma cell ratio of 70%. The patient was diagnosed with IgG4-related disease (RD). Rituximab only had a slight effect. This case demonstrates that overlapping features of IgG4-RD and MCD may present in a single patient, which suggests a shared pathogenesis.

“…Without learning to read them we are, as Andrew Fleming has noted (in another context), "… semi-literate, in the face of a landscape which is there to be read and understood" (1998:3). Such maps establish essential context, and keeping them in view is critical to understand both the cultural associations of the features we study and the role of our own context in that process (see Snead 2012).…”

“…Four cases of ophthalmic involvement have been reported in the literature [4-7]. Three cases reported orbital masses diagnosed as Castleman's disease [5-7], while the final case reported a serous retinal detachment along with choroidal thickening [4]. In our case, after combination chemotherapy for multicentric Castleman's disease, the serous elevation of the retina and the annular choroidal detachments of both eyes disappeared.…”

We report a rare case of multicentric Castleman's disease that presented with ophthalmic involvement, along with a review of the literature. A 63-year-old male presented with decreased visual acuity in both eyes. Both eyes had serous elevations of the retinas with shifting subretinal fluid and annular choroidal detachment. No retinal breaks were found. Laboratory tests revealed pancytopenia, hypergammaglobulinemia, and an increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Chest and abdominal computed tomographies showed multiple lymphadenopathies in the mediastinum, abdomen, and in both inguinal areas. Histological examination of the inguinal lymph node biopsy was consistent with Castleman's disease. After combination chemotherapy, the serous elevations of both retinas and the annular choroidal detachments of both eyes disappeared. Ophthalmic involvement in Castleman's disease is very rare, and to the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of ophthalmic involvement of Castlemans's disease in Korea.
