Primary Mediastinal Neoplasms in Infants and Children
Abstract Primary mediastinal tumors were observed in 62 infants and children. Thirty-nine of the tumors were located posteriorly, 16 anteriorly, and 7 in the middle mediastinum. Neurogenic tumors occurred in 36 patients, with neuroblastoma accounting for 25. Lymphoma was noted in 20 patients, teratoma in 5 patients, and a rare lipoma in 1.
