Emerging role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in Castleman disease: a review
Abstract Castleman disease (CD) describes a group of rare hematologic conditions involving lymphadenopathy with characteristic histopathology and a spectrum of clinical abnormalities. CD is divided into localized or unicentric CD (UCD) and multicentric CD (MCD) by imaging. MCD is further divided bas...

description | Abstract Castleman disease (CD) describes a group of rare hematologic conditions involving lymphadenopathy with characteristic histopathology and a spectrum of clinical abnormalities. CD is divided into localized or unicentric CD (UCD) and multicentric CD (MCD) by imaging. MCD is further divided based on etiological driver into human herpesvirus-8-associated MCD, POEMS-associated MCD, and idiopathic MCD. There is notable heterogeneity across MCD, but increased level of pro-inflammatory cytokines, particularly interleukin-6, is an established disease driver in a portion of patients. FDG-PET/CT can help determine UCD versus MCD, evaluate for neoplastic conditions that can mimic MCD clinico-pathologically, and monitor therapy responses. CD requires more robust characterization, earlier diagnosis, and an accurate tool for both monitoring and treatment response evaluation; FDG-PET/CT is particularly suited for this. Moving forward, future prospective studies should further characterize the use of FDG-PET/CT in CD and specifically explore the utility of global disease assessment and dual time point imaging.
