Castleman病是一种罕见的良性疾病，病因不明，可引起反应性淋巴结增生。Castleman病有两种组织学亚型：透明血管型和浆细胞型。组织活检对于明确诊断是必要的。颈部卡斯尔曼氏病很少发生。回顾文献，大多数颈部Castleman病表现为单一肿块。我们在此报告一位80岁男性，颈部有2个肿块，持续1年。左侧下颌下区和左侧IV级区分别有一个4厘米的坚固可移动肿块和一个2厘米的坚固可移动肿块。患者在切除1个肿块后被诊断为颈部Castleman病。随访21个月后，无进展或复发迹象。我们认为这是一例罕见的多中心宫颈Castleman病。
Castleman's disease is an uncommon benign disease of unknown etiology that induces reactive lymph node hyperplasia. There are 2 histologic subtypes of Castleman's disease: hyaline vascular type and plasma cell type. Tissue biopsy is necessary for a definitive diagnosis. Castleman's disease of the neck occurs rarely. On reviewing the literature, most Castleman's disease of the neck presented with a single mass. We report here an 80-year-old man with 2 neck masses of 1 year's duration. A 4-cm firm movable mass in the left submandibular area and another 2-cm firm movable mass in the left level IV area were noted. The patient was diagnosed with Castleman's disease of the neck after resection of 1 of the masses. There was no evidence of progression or recurrence of the disease after 21 months of follow-up. We suggest that this was a rare case of multicentric cervical Castleman's disease.
