The etiology and pathogenesis of the Castleman disease are still not elucidated and the MRI findings of disease has not yet been reported. Two patients with Castleman disease studied by MRI are presented one case presented with a localized anterior mediastinal mass and the other case, with a neck mass. The lesions were characterized by relatively high signal intensities on both T1 and T2 weighted images in both cases, and significant degree of enhancement was seen in the cervical Castleman disease.
