| Castleman d. |
a condition resembling lymphoma but without recognizable malignant cells, occurring as isolated masses of lymphoid tissue and lymph node hyperplasia, usually in the abdominal or mediastinal area. There are two types, the hyaline vascular type and the plasma cell type. The former is by far the most common and characterized by a large mass consisting of involuted germinal centers surrounded by concentric layers of lymphocytes, with hyalinization of the blood vessels entering the germinal centers; it is relatively benign and often asymptomatic. The latter, consisting of sheets of plasma cells, is more aggressive and often multicentric and may be premalignant; it is frequently accompanied by a variety of signs and symptoms that resolve when the lesion is excised. Called also giant lymph node hyperplasia.
