Castleman's disease (CD) is a unique lymphoproliferative disorder. It commonly occurs in the mediastinum, neck, axilla, and abdomen, and retroperitoneal involvement is rare. Here we report a unique case of CD in the pelvis. Laparotomy was performed and surgery was complicated by adhesions and vascularity. Total surgical duration was Five hours and 45 min with 4.5 L of blood loss. Ten pints of blood was transfused. The mass was histopathologically diagnosed as hyaline-vascular CD. The patient was free of recurrence after 10 years of follow-up.
