title: Isolated Castleman disease of the neck: MR findings.
abstract: Castleman disease in an 11-year-old girl appeared as a neck mass that grew despite antibiotic treatment. MR showed a well-defined solid mass, isointense with muscle on short-repetition-time/short-echo-time images, with a stellate area of central hypointensity on long-repetition-time/long-echo-time images, that did not enhance with gadolinium.
