Abstract

Castleman disease (CD) is a benign lymphoproliferative disorder of unknown etiology, which can involve any part of the body. CD can involve a single lymph node (unicentric) or multiple lymph nodes (multicentric) of which unicentric CD is the most common type. The unicentric CD is usually localized, asymptomatic, and often appears as an incidental mass on radiographs, whereas multicentric CD is characterized by systemic involvement. Mesenteric involvement of CD is very rare. In this article, we present a case of the unicentric CD of small bowel mesentery, which mimicked a neuroendocrine tumor preoperatively.
