Myelolipoma of the posterior mediastinum: report of a case
Myelolipoma is an uncommon tumor composed of adipose tissue and normal hematopoietic elements, and is most often found in the adrenal glands. We report a patient with a posterior mediastinal myelolipoma. The 68-year-old male patient showed a right lower mediastinal shadow in a chest X-ray. A computed tomographic scan demonstrated a right posterior mediastinal mass. Magnetic resonance imaging pr...
متن کاملA Case of Extramedullary Plasmacytoma Arising from the Posterior Mediastinum
Plasmacytomas are a localized proliferation of plasma cells in the bone marrow, and are less frequently seen in extraosseous organs or tissues. Extramedullary plasmacytoma is a rare malignant neoplasm, and is especially uncommon when it arises from the mediastinum. Here, we report on a case of posterior mediastinal extramedullary plasmacytoma in a 64-year-old man. He was admitted with an asympt...
متن کاملA case of Mullerian cyst arising in posterior mediastinum.
A mediastinal Mullerian cyst was initially reported as a new category of congenital cyst by Hattori, et al. in 2005. We treated a 53-year-old female referred to us with a posterior mediastinal tumor found at the Th5 prevertebral level by chest-computed tomography during a medical check-up. She had a history of mediastinal teratoma, which was removed at the age of 35. Chest magnetic resonance im...
متن کاملMalignant paraganglioma arising from the posterior mediastinum: a case report and review of the literature.
An unusual case of paraganglioma of posterior mediastinum occurred in a young adult with local recurrence and multiple distant metastasis. Because of its rarity, the determinants of prognosis factor between benign and malignant paraganglioma are uncertain. In this case, we investigated abnormalities of the p53 gene and ras gene mutations in tissues of primary and metastatic lesions. Neither abn...
متن کاملMyelolipoma of the posterior mediastinum in a patient with chronic dyserythropoietic anemia
Myelolipoma (ML) is an uncommon benign mesenchymal neoplasia composed of mature adipose and hematopoietic tissues of uncertain etiology. Less than 3% of MLs occur in the mediastinal topography. The main differential diagnosis involves extramedullary hematopoiesis; therefore, pathological evaluation is essential for the definitive diagnosis. The authors report the case of a 50-year-old man diagn...
