Abstract
Castleman's disease was first described from Benjamin Castleman in 1956. The disease today is enumerated among lymphoproliferative disorders and has unknown etiology. Although the mediastinum is a their most common location, they also occurs in other areas of the body, usually where lymph nodes are normally found. Castleman's disease of the neck is very rare. We describe a case of Castleman's disease of the neck in a middle aged man, and discuss the clinical presentation, radiological findings, and pathological features.
