Imaging Characteristics of a Mature Posterior-mediastinal Teratoma
Although mature teratomas are a common cause of anterior mediastinal tumors, they rarely arise in other mediastinal compartments. We describe a 16-year-old boy with a 20×10 cm mature cystic teratoma in the posterior mediastinum. This case emphasizes the importance of correct diagnosis if a mediastinal mass with the typical features of a mature teratoma-such as fat, cystic compartments, calcific...
متن کاملRhabdomyosarcoma arising in mediastinal teratoma in an adult man: a case report.
We report a case of rhabdomyosarcoma which occurred in a mediastinal teratoma in a 44-year-old man. Presentation symptoms were chest pain, hoarseness and a cough. Diagnosis was fortuitous, performed by the histological and immunohistochemical study of a mediastinal tumour biopsy specimen that showed embryonal carcinoma and yolk sac tumour components associated with the rhabdomyosarcoma. After c...
متن کاملPosterolateral thoracotomy Approach for an Ectopic Mediastinum Thymoma: A Case Report
Thymic epithelial neoplasms are commonly aetiology of the anterior mediastinum masses in adults. It represents 20–30% of all mediastinal tumours in adults. Ectopic thymomas usually affect the neck, mediastinal compartments, lung, and pleura, arising from aberrant thymic tissue. For giant thymoma, there is still no consensus on the surgical approach. We herein report a patient with a giant thym...
متن کاملDermoid cyst of the mediastinum communicating with a bronchus; report of two cases.
Benign tumors of the mediastinum may on occasion reach massive proportions. Previous reports on mediastinal tumors made by Clagett and others include a fibroma weighing over 4000 gm successfully removed, and a lipoma (autopsy specimen) of 12,000 gm. Ganglioneuroma of the mediastinum is a rare lesion and is almost always posterior in origin. Three of 71 cases reviewed by Kent and Blades were in ...
متن کاملAn unusual cause of dysphagia: transabdominal Roux-en-Y cyst-jejunostomy in the surgical management of a symptomatic mediastinal cyst
We present a 52-year-old gentleman with an unusual cause of progressive dysphagia, namely due to extrinsic lower oesophageal compression from a cystic mass of the posterior mediastinum. Cystic masses in adults are uncommon, and there is a wide differential diagnosis. This includes neoplastic, such as germ cell tumour (cystic teratoma), and non-neoplastic aetiologies. The later include foregut d...
