Clinical Imaging

Abstract

Castleman disease, or angiofollicullar hyperplasia, is a rare cause of lymph node enlargement. This most commonly occurs within the thorax, although rare extrathoracic presentations have been described. Only two cases with hepatic localization have been reported. We present a case of Castleman disease within the porta hepatis masquerading as a hepatic neoplasm.

Castleman Disease

Castleman disease is a rare disorder that involves an overgrowth of cells in the lymph nodes. Unicentric Castleman disease affects one lymph node, usually in the chest or abdomen. Multicentric Castleman disease affects multiple lymph nodes, commonly located in the neck, collarbone, underarm and groin areas. Discover the latest research on Castleman disease here.

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

B cell Differentiation

Depending on the signal received through the B cell receptor and other receptors, B cells differentiate into follicular or marginal zone B cells. Here is the latest research pertaining to this differentiation process.
