Huge Anterior Mediastinal Teratoma Leading to Orthopnea in a Young Patient
Artículo | IMSEAR | ID: sea-221847
ABSTRACT
The anterior mediastinal cysts and masses (AMCM) can be of varied origin and presentation. Although the space in the mediastinum is limited the cysts and masses can grow to a large size before the presentation. They displace the adjacent structures and then can grow into the pleural cavities thereby acquiring a large size.

The patient recovered well after surgical treatment.
