Embolization of blood-supply artery followed by surgery for treatment of mesorectal Castleman’s disease: case report and literature review
2019
: A 23-year-old male patient was diagnosed as having a hypervascular pelvic mass by ultrasonography and magnetic resonance examination. A pathology puncture showed vitreous vascular Castleman's disease. Because of concerns about tumor blood supply, embolization under digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed on the artery of the pelvic tumor before resection of the mass and surrounding rectum. Castleman's disease of pelvic lymph node (mixed type, mainly hyaline vascular type) was confirmed pathologically from postoperative biopsy. Embolization of the blood-supply artery of a hypervascular mass should be considered before surgery is performed.
