概要
Castleman's disease is a lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia. Recently, a new variant of multicentric Castleman's disease has been identified in Japan called TAFRO syndrome. It is characterized by a constellation of symptoms: thrombocytopenia, anasarca, reticulin fibrosis of the bone marrow, renal dysfunction and organomegaly (TAFRO). It is usually associated with polyclonal hyperimmunoglobulinemia. Here, we report the first and unique case of TAFRO syndrome with monoclonal gammapathy.
