Bronchiolitis Obliterans in a Young Female Patient with Paraneoplastic Pemphigus Associated with Unicentric Castleman’s Disease

Background: Castleman’s disease (CD), also known as angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia, describes a rare group of diseases manifesting with enlarged lymph nodes and various inflammatory symptoms. The association between Castleman’s disease, paraneoplastic pemphigus and bronchiolitis obliterans has been described in the literature and is depicted thoroughly in this case. Case Presentation: We present a case of severe bronchiolitis obliterans developing in a 17-year-old female with paraneoplastic pemphigus and unicentric Castleman’s disease. Conclusion: Surgical resection of unicentric Castleman’s disease remains the treatment of choice due to its efficacy in preventing the recurrence of associated morbidity caused by bronchiolitis obliterans and paraneoplastic pemphigus.
