المستخلص : BACHGROUND: Castleman's disease (CD) is a rare atypical lymphoproliferative disorder that is morphologically and clinically heterogeneous and is associated with a risk of developing malignant lymphoma. The pathogenesis of CD is still not clear. The aim of this study is to evaluate the possible involvement of human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) in the pathogenesis of CD. METHOD: Immunohistochemistry for HHV-8 was performed on archival formalin- fixed, paraffin wax embedded biopsy specimens from 25 cases of CD without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection at The Toronto General Hospital, University Health Network (Toronto, Canada), King Abdulaziz University Hospital and King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (Jeddah, Saudi Arabia). The clinical histories were reviewed. Pathology sections (4 m) were stained using mouse monoclonal antibody (NCL-HHV8-LNA), which is specific for human herpesvirus type 8 latent nuclear antigen-1 (LNA-1). The assays were performed at the Department of Pathology, KAUH, Jeddah, KSA in 2007. RESULTS: The age range was 16-90 years. There were 14 males and 11 females. Twenty-one patients had the localized form of CD and 4 patients had the multicentric form. Only one of the 25 cases (4%) showed positive nuclear staining. CONCLUSIONS: HHV-8 is unlikely to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of the large majority of cases of HIV-negative CD. This is in contrast to the reported involvement of HHV-8 in HIV-positive CD.
