Sumario:Castleman disease (CD), a heterogenous lymphoproliferative disorder resulting from immune dysregulation, is a very rare disease in clinical practice. The clinical spectrum of Castleman disease is wide and its treatment options are mostly based on case reports and case series. To date, two clinical and four histological types have been described. It has recently been successfully demonstrated that the pathogenesis of multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) has a direct association with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8) infection which is why further studies are necessary. Here, we report an unusual case of MCD not associated with HIV and having a histological diagnosis of the hyaline vascular type that presented with acute renal impairment and subcutaneous abnormal lymphatic proliferation.
