ABSTRACT
We present a case of PNP associated with Castleman's Disease. We have also reviewed the literature and described the characteristics of the two associated diseases. Gene clonal rearrangement was done to help diagnosis. We used, in addition, stereotactic radiosurgery which, as far as we know, has never before been employed to treat PNP associated with Castleman's Disease. This produced a good response, suggesting that it might be a good alternative treatment for PNP associated with Castleman's Disease when it is too difficult to operate.
RESUMO
Apresentamos um caso de PNP associada à doença de Castleman.Também revisamos a literatura, e referenciamos as características das duas doenças associadas. Um rearranjo genético clonal foi feito para ajudar o diagnóstico. Além disso, usamos a radiocirurgia que até então nunca havia sido utilizada para tratar PNP associada à doença de Castleman. Esta produziu uma boa resposta, sugerindo que pode ser uma boa alternativa para o tratamento de PNP associada com a doença de Castleman quando é muito difícil fazer uma cirugia convencional.
