Extrathoracic Castleman's disease.
Castleman's disease is an uncommon clinical entity. We report two cases of this disease with a brief review of literature. Both of them had extrathoracic disease which is relatively infrequent. One of them presented with localized hyaline vascular type of the disease and the other with the multicentric plasmacytic variety. The patient with the latter form of Castleman's disease had sclerodactyly, which has not been reported earlier in association with this disease.
