Abstract
VALLE, Luísa et al. Retroperitoneal Castlemans disease. Arq Med [online]. 2005, vol.19, n.1-2, pp.29-33. ISSN 2183-2447.
Castleman´s disease is an atypical lymphoproliferative disorder, relatively rare, with chronic evolution and nonspecific symptoms. We report a case of retroperitoneal mixed histologic type Castleman´s disease with cold haemolytic anemia as initial clinical manifestation. We also review the different subtypes, clinical presentation, diagnostic and therapeutic approach.
Keywords : Castleman´s disease; unicentric form; multicentric form.
