Three Cases of Giant Lymph Node Hyperplasia in Unusual Location

ABSTRACT

Giant lymph node hyperplasia (Castleman's disease) was first described by Castleman and associates. In the first accounts of giant lymph node hyperplasia, the lesions were described as solitary and localized to the mediastinum. Recently, we have experienced three cases of Castleman's disease, first of which is a 54 year old male with plasma cell type in the mesentery, second is 27 year old femal with hyaline vascular type in the inguinal region and third is a 29 year old female with hyaline vascular tye in neck.
