It has 2 distinct clinical forms: unicentric and multicentric. Unicentric Castleman's disease arising from an intrapulmonary lymph node is rare, and establishing a preoperative diagnosis of this disease is very difficult mainly due to a lack of specific imaging features. We report a case of intrapulmonary unicentric Castleman's disease in an asymptomatic 19-year-old male patient who was accurately diagnosed by preoperative computed tomography (CT). The mass was incidentally found on a routine chest X-ray. A subsequent dynamic CT showed a well-defined, hypervascular, soft-tissue mass with small calcifications located in the perihilar area of the right lower lung. Three-dimensional CT (3D-CT) angiography indicated that the mass was receiving its blood supply through a vascular network at its surface that originated from 2 right bronchial arteries. The clinical history and CT findings were consistent with a diagnosis of unicentric Castleman's disease, and we safely and successfully removed the tumor via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgical lobectomy. This case shows that the imaging characteristics of these rare tumors on contrast-enhanced CT combined with 3D-CT angiography can be helpful in reliably establishing a correct preoperative diagnosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/289089","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,6,10]],"date-time":"2013-06-10T17:00:56Z","timestamp":1370883656000},"page":"1-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Unicentric Castleman's Disease Arising from an Intrapulmonary Lymph Node"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2013","author":[{"given":"Hideki","family":"Ota","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Thoracic Surgery, Akita Red Cross Hospital, Akita 010-1495, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hideki","family":"Kawai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Thoracic Surgery, Akita Red Cross Hospital, Akita 010-1495, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4945-4607","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Tsubasa","family":"Matsuo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Thoracic Surgery, Akita Red Cross Hospital, Akita 010-1495, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","first-page":"388","volume":"311","year":"1954","journal-title":"The New England Journal of Medicine"},{"key":"2","volume-title":"Benign lymph node disease involving the mediastinum","volume":"2","year":"2009"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000421-199504000-00019"},{"issue":"3","key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"670","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(197203)29:3<670::AID-CNCR2820290321>3.0.CO;2-#","volume":"29","year":"1972","journal-title":"Cancer"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejim.2005.11.012"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.athoracsur.2007.04.042"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11748-009-0434-0"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1100\/tsw.2009.110"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3760\/cma.j.issn.0366-6999.2009.08.021"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5761\/atcs.cr.10.01644"},{"issue":"3","key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"706","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0142(19990201)85:3<706::AID-CNCR21>3.0.CO;2-7","volume":"85","year":"1999","journal-title":"Cancer"},{"issue":"3","key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"670","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(20010801)92:3<670::AID-CNCR1369>3.0.CO;2-Q","volume":"92","year":"2001","journal-title":"Cancer"},{"issue":"1","key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"221","DOI":"10.1148\/radiology.209.1.9769835","volume":"209","year":"1998","journal-title":"Radiology"},{"issue":"1","key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"115","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.175.1.1750115","volume":"175","year":"2000","journal-title":"The American Journal of Roentgenology"},{"key":"15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s002619910047"},{"issue":"11","key":"16","first-page":"660","volume":"31","year":"1995","journal-title":"Israel Journal of Medical Sciences"},{"key":"17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0895-6111(93)90052-O"},{"key":"18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1477-7819-3-33"},{"issue":"3","key":"19","first-page":"151","volume":"40","year":"1989","journal-title":"The American Family Physician"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2013\/289089.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2013\/289089.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2013\/289089.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,21]],"date-time":"2017-06-21T10:25:46Z","timestamp":1498040746000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2013\/289089\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013]]},"references-count":19,"alternative-id":["289089","289089"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2013\/289089","relation":{},"ISSN":["2090-6900","2090-6919"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2090-6900","type":"print"},{"value":"2090-6919","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013]]}}}
