Preoperative Direct Puncture Embolization of Castleman Disease of the Parotid Gland: A Case Report.
Current Oncology 2024 April 5
BACKGROUND: Castleman disease (CD) is an uncommon benign lymphoproliferative disease characterized by hypervascular lymphoid hyperplasia. We present a unique case of unicentric CD of the parotid gland treated by preoperative direct puncture embolization.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 27-year-old female patient was admitted for a right neck mass. Ultrasound examination and MRI scan documented a hypervascular mass within the right parotid gland. Preoperative embolization was performed by direct puncture technique: a needle was inserted into the core of the mass under both ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance and SQUID 12 was injected into the mass under fluoroscopic control, achieving a total devascularization.
CONCLUSION: Preoperative direct puncture embolization was safe and effective and provides excellent hemostatic control during the surgical operation, limiting the amount of intraoperative bleeding.
