[The radiotherapy of Castleman's lymphoma].
The angiofollicular lymphoid hyperplasia, first described by Castleman, is a benign lymphoma. The authors report a very rare case of Castleman lymphoma in the parotid gland. The tumor was successfully irradiated with 40 Gy fast electrons. Treatment planning and therapy monitoring were done by means of ultrasound and computed tomography.
