Abstract
Castleman disease is a rare benign lymph node hyperplasia usually presenting as an asymptomatic mediastinal mass in children. It can present at any extrathoracic site where there is lymphoid tissue. The sites include retroperitoneum, mesentery, axilla, and pelvis. Mesenteric Castleman disease is very rare in children.Entities:
