Castleman's disease is a rare entity which is characterized by its histologic features: hyperplasia of lymph nodes and capillary proliferation. Two distinct histological patterns has been described: hyaline vascular type and plasma-cell type. Two different clinical course has been identified. While localized type is usually a benign disease in which surgical resection is curative, multicentric type has a poor prognosis regarded to the appearance of severe infection or neoplasm (Kaposi's sarcoma or malignant lymphoma. We present a rare association of localized Castleman's disease that presents synchronously with a diffuse large-cell lymphoma.

La enfermedad de Castleman (EC) es una entidad poco frecuente definida por sus rasgos anatomopatológicos: hiperplasia de las células dendríticas de los ganglios linfáticos y proliferación capilar. Se han descrito dos subtipos histológicos: hialino-vascular y plasmo-celular. Hay dos cuadros clínicos bien diferenciados. Mientras que la enfermedad localizada es una enfermedad benigna y el tratamiento quirúrgico es curativo, la forma multicéntrica tiene un mal pronóstico debido al desarrollo de infecciones o neoplasias (sarcoma de Kaposi y linfomas). Presentamos un caso de EC localizada variedad plasmocelular asociado a un linfoma difuso de células grandes de presentación sincrónica, que consideramos de interés dada la rareza de dicha asociación y de esta forma de presentación (AU)
