Abstract
Background: Castleman disease (CD) is a rare disorder that affects lymph nodes and has a wide range of associated symptoms. The affected lymph nodes show characteristic histological picture. Most of the unicentric Castleman disease (UCD) cases can be cured by complete surgical removal or radiotherapy, while multicentric CD (MCD) is much more complicated and have several subtypes and requires more effort to reach a precise diagnosis and management
