ABSTRACT
We describe a 22-year-old Chinese woman with a history of cough and hemoptysis due to an unusual giant mediastinal mass with pulmonary involvement. The tumor was successfully resected via a left lateral thoracotomy and a median sternotomy. The histopathological diagnosis was a mature mediastinal teratoma. We describe here the management of this case and wish to emphasise that the surgical resection is feasible in giant mediastinal mature teratoma
