Unicentric Castleman's disease located in the scapular region.

Castleman's disease (CD) or giant node hyperplasia is a rare benign disease of unknown etiology characterized by lymphoid hyperplasia. Although the most common site of the disease is the mediastinum, very few cases occurring in lymph nodes elsewhere have been reported in English literature, including only 10 intramuscular cases. We report a case of unicentric CD of the hyaline vascular type in a 30 year female located in the right scapular region.

Cyto-histopathological and Clinical Correlation of Pilomatricomas: A 4 Year Study.

Aim: The aim of the following study is to characterize the cytological features of pilomatricomas (PMXs) on fine-needle aspiration (FNA) and correlate with the histopathological features.

Materials And Methods: FNA, histopathological and clinical diagnosis of 12 cases of PMXs were analyzed. Clinical, aspiration findings and histopathological features were correlated with histopathological diagnosis which was taken as the gold standard.
