Mediastinal Castleman’s Disease: Report of two cases and review of the literature

Castleman’s disease is an enlargement of lymph nodes without differentiaton of age and sex. A 37-year-old woman and a 38-year-old man patients were treated surgically in our clinic who were diagnosed as Castleman’s disease with histopathological examination. For both of the patients diagnostic thoracotomy was performed and tumoral masses were resected. Postoperatively, hyaline-vascularized type Castleman’s disease was diagnosed and our patients were remained asymptomatic at follow-up. Our patients were remained asymptomatic for follow-up after operation.
