Castleman disease

Castleman disease (CD) is a benign lymphoproliferative disorder that may present as a localized or multicentric form (see these terms). The clinical manifestations are heterogeneous, ranging from asymptomatic discrete lymphadenopathy to recurrent episodes of diffuse lymphadenopathy with severe systemic symptoms.

Immunodeficiency

Failure of the immune system to protect the body adequately from infection, due to the absence or insufficiency of some component process or substance.
