Abstract
('astleman's Disease, also known as giant lymph node hyperplasia, is a benign lymphoproliferatife disorder. 2/3 of the cases shows mediastinal and pulmonary involvement, 13 shows extramediastinal lymph node and extra nodal involvement. Histologically, hyaline vascular (IIV type, % 90), plasma cell (PC type % ¡0) and mixed types were identij'ied. This case was diagnosed by supraclavicular lymph node biopsy ( PC' type). Because of its unusual localization and rare histologic type, we evaluated the literature and reported the case.[Journal of Turgut Özal Medical Center 1(2): 149-153, 1994[
