ABSTRACT
Castleman's disease (CD) is a lymphoproliferative disorder of unknown origin and rarely occurs in children. It has been further classified into two major subgroups solitary or localized and multicentric CD. Furthermore, there are two main histological variants hyaline-vascular, plasma cell types. Clinically, hyaline-vascular type is rarely associated with systemic symptoms, but the plasma cell type is frequently associated with the constitutional symptoms of fever, malaise, night sweat and the abnormal laboratory markers. Surgical excision of the affected lymph node plays an important role in the treatment of this disease. We encountered a case of the hyaline-vascular type CD located in the mesentery with systemic involvement. The clinical and biochemical abnormal findings improved after surgical resection of the involved lymph node.
