Unicentric retroperitoneal Castleman disease: Report of 3 cases

Castleman Hastalığı daha çok mediastinumda görülen nadir bir lenfoproliferatif hastalıktır.Abdominal formları nadir görülürler ve çok nadir olarak izole retroperitoneal bir kitle şeklindeortaya çıkarlar. Tanı postoperatif patolojik bulgulara göre koyulur. Bildirimizde karşılaştığımız üçunisentrik retroperitoneal Castleman Hastalığı olan hastayı sunduk. Medikal muayeneler sonucu üçkadın hastada retroperitoneal kitle tespit edildi. Kitleler cerrahi olarak çıkarıldı ve histopatolojikinceleme sonucu hiyalin-vasküler tip Castleman Hastalığı tespit edildi. Castleman Hastalığı nadirolmasına rağmen retroperitoneal kitlelerin ayırıcı tanısında düşünülmelidir.

Unisentrik retroperitoneal Castleman hastalığı: 3 olgunun sunumu

Castleman Disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder mainly occuring in the mediastinum.Abdominal forms are less frequent and manifests rarely as an isolated retroperitoneal mass. Thediagnosis is based on postoperative pathological findings. Herein, we report three cases ofunicentric retroperitoneal Castleman Disease from our center. Three women were detected to havea retroperitoneal mass in the medical examinations. The masses were surgically removed andhistopathological examination revealed a hyaline-vascular type of Castleman disease. Althoughretroperitoneal Castleman Disease is rare, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis ofretroperitoneal masses.
