Sumario:KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Idiopathic Castleman disease transforming into Diffuse Large B‐cell Lymphoma has an aggressive course and can lead to mortality. Hence, early diagnosis and intervention are required. ABSTRACT: Idiopathic Castleman disease transforming into non‐Hodgkin lymphoma has an aggressive course, poor prognosis, and high mortality rate. Hence, early diagnosis and intervention are necessary. In a developing country like Nepal, where infectious diseases, particularly TB, are high, concomitant infection worsens the disease course. It also poses a diagnostic challenge as the clinical presentation may be similar.
