Castleman's disease, also known as angiofollicular hyperplasia, usually occurs in the mediastinum and rarely in cervical region as solitary mass. Histopathologically four variants have been recognized (Castleman et al. Cancer 1954; 9:822-30) hyaline vascular type - most common type (Keller et al. Cancer 1972; 29:670-83) plasma cell type (Salisbury, Pediatric Pathol 1990; 10:609-15) transitional type (Shahidi, Mayo Clinic Proc 1995; 70:969-77) stromal rich type. We report a case of Castleman's disease of typical histopathological picture of angio follicular hyperplasia arising from the right carotid triangle of neck in 12-year-old child without any associated systemic illness.
