摘要：

Castleman's disease is often referred to as giant lymph-node hyperplasia. Although this localized disorder most commonly involves the mediastinum, recently many patients have been described with multicentric lymph-node hyperplasia associated with various clinical abnormalities. Here a new case of multicentric angiofollicular lymph-node hyperplasia associated with myasthenia gravis and gammopathy is presented. At first, the patient responded to surgery well, but after some months her condition deteriorated: plasmapheresis was then performed, one year after the operation, with great clinical improvement.
