title: Giant lymph node hyperplasia in an angiolipomatous mediastinal mass.
abstract: A case of an unusual association of giant lymph node hyperplasia (Castleman's disease)--the hyaline vascular variant--originating within a mediastinal angiolipomatous mass is studied and its clinical and pathologic characteristics compared with those of two previously reported cases. Histogenetic implications of this finding are briefly considered.
