Castleman Disease
Castleman Disease affects the lymphatic system, leading to non-cancerous but abnormal growth of lymph node tissue.
It can appear as a single enlarged node (unicentric) or multiple (multicentric) and often mimics lymphoma in presentation.
Overview And Clinical Background
Castleman Disease involves overgrowth of cells in the body’s lymphatic system, potentially affecting immune function.
It is classified as unicentric or multicentric based on lymph node involvement.
Symptoms, Signs And Presentation
Symptoms depend on type and extent of lymph node involvement.
Commonly confused with infections or lymphoma.
Diagnosis Methods And Investigations
Histopathology and Imaging
Diagnosis is confirmed through biopsy, supported by imaging and lab work.
Early recognition prevents complications.
Treatment Options And Surgical Techniques
Treatment depends on the disease subtype and severity.
Surgery, medications, or targeted therapy may be required.
Recovery, Risks And Prognosis
Prognosis is excellent for localized disease post-surgery.
Multicentric forms require ongoing monitoring and systemic management.
