Castleman disease, abbreviated CD, is a rare pathology of the lymph node.
It is also known as angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia and giant lymph node hyperplasia.[1]
General
- Benign.
- Hyaline vascular variant (classic Castleman disease) - a pathology of the follicular dendritic cells.[2]
Classification
By site of involvement:
- Unicentric (one lymph node or a cluster of nodes at one site)
- ~75% hyaline vascular variant
- ~25% Plasma cell variant
- Multicentric often associated with splenomegaly (75%) and hepatomegaly (50%)
- >90% plasma cell variant
- <10% hyaline vascular variant
CD is grouped by histologic appearance:[3]
- Hyaline vascular (HV) variant (described by Castleman).
- Usually unicentric.
- Typically mediastinal or axial.
- More common than plasma cell variant; represents 80-90% of CD cases.
- May be associated with follicular dendritic cell neoplasia.[4]
- Plasma cell (PC) variant.
- Usually multicentric, may be unicentric.
- Abundant plasma cells.
- 50-60% associated with HHV-8 infection (the same virus implicated in Kaposi's sarcoma). The virus produces an IL-6 analogue which drives many of the systemic features.
Some divide the multicentric pattern into
- POEMS-associated CD
- HHV8+ CD
- HIV+
- HIV-
- HHV8- CD, further sub-divided into
- TAFRO syndrome associated
- Others
Notes:
- The subclassification of CD is in some flux. Some authors advocate splitting-out HHV-8 and multicentric as separate subtypes.[5]
Microscopic
Hyaline-vascular variant
- Pale concentric (expanded) mantle zone lymphocytes - key feature.
- "Regressed follicles" - germinal center (pale area) is small.
- "Lollipops":
- Germinal centers fed by prominent (radially penetrating sclerotic) vessels; lollipop-like appearance.
- Two germinal centers in one follicle, so called "twinning".
- Hyaline material (pink acellular stuff on H&E) in germinal center.
- Sinuses effaced (lost).
- Mitoses absent.

Plasma cell variant
Features:[7]
- Interfollicular sheets of plasma cells - key feature.
- Active germinal centers - mitoses present.
- Sinus preserved.
- In HHV8-negative cases, several other conditions can give a Castleman-like appearance, listed comprehensively in the consensus criteria for HHV8-negative CD:
- Autoimmune diseases
- Infections
- Malignancies
IHC
Hyaline-vascular variant:
- Stains to exclude mantle cell lymphoma:
- Cyclin D1.
Plasma cell variant:
- HHV-8 +ve.
