Castleman's disease of the spleen: CT, MR imaging and angiographic findings

T Taura et al. Eur J Radiol. 2000 Oct.

Abstract

Since Castleman and Towne [Castleman and Towne, Hyperplasia of mediastinal lymph nodes, New Engl. J. Med. 250 (1954), 26-30] first described hyperplasia of the mediastinal lymph nodes in 1954, many cases of Castleman's disease have been reported. Lesions originating in the spleen arc extremely rare, and we here describe the imaging appearances for such a case, and discuss with a brief review of the literature.
