Abstract

Catsleman's disease is a type of angiofolliculr lymph node hyperplasia and its etiology is not known yet. It usually presents with the mediastinal mass but rarely with the parotid mass. There are only five cases previously reported in the literatures. It has two pathologic types, which are hyaline vascular type and plasma cell type. Plasma cell type is frequently associated with systemic menifestations. Diagnosis is based on the histopatholgic findings. Treatment is surgical excision. A case of Catsleman's disease involving the parotid lymph node is presented and literatures are reviewed.
