Popis: We report two cases of multicentric Castleman's disease, plasma cell type, associated with three different liver lesions. Peliosis hepatis was observed in one case and perisinusoidal fibrosis with nodular regenerative hyperplasia in the other. These observations give some evidence that Castleman's disease, per se, may be involved in these three presumably interrelated liver vascular lesions. These changes, already described in monoclonal lymphoproliferations such as myeloma and Waldenstrom's disease, may also be recorded in a disease characterized by a strong polyclonal plasma cell hyperplasia.
