Mediastinal Granuloma and Fibrosing Mediastinitis
Chest, 1979Thirty-one patients with mediastinal granuloma and fibrosing mediastinitis were seen at the Mayo Clinic from 1975 through 1977. Review of this series reveals that surgery is necessary to establish a diagnosis if the lesions are noncalcified and indeterminate.

Post-sternotomy mediastinitis in the modern era

Mediastinitis is defined as acute or chronic inflammation of the mediastinal structures and generally has a low incidence. The most frequent acute cause is sternotomy following cardiac revascularization surgery with both internal mammary arteries, with an incidence of 0.4% to 5% and a mortality of 16.5% to 47%.

Tumori Journal, 2004
The authors report a rare case of primary chondrosarcoma of the anterior mediastinum showing unusual pathological and clinical features, namely 1) the lack of any anatomical relationship between the tumor and cartilage-containing organs, and 2) an indolent behavior with long-term survival. In spite of early disease recurrence and repeated surgery, the

Mediastinal Granuloma and Mediastinal Fibrosis
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2002Mediastinal granuloma/mediastinal fibrosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the mediastinum. Mediastinal granuloma is the abnormal enlargment of mediastinal lymph nodes by granulomatous inflammation, is usually asyptomatic or minimally symptomatic, and is often detected on chest radiographs taken for other reasons. In contrast, mediastinal fibrosis

A case of meningioma appearing to arise from the stellate ganglion and associated with a unilateral Horner syndrome of long standing is presented. Clinical absence of central nervous system involvement and a normal computerized tomographic scan of the brain favor the neoplasm as being a primary extracranial meningioma.

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1987
Chondromatous hamartomas of the lung are usually intraparenchymal and are rarely located in the bronchial lumen. Mediastinal chondrohamartomas are rare. A case is reported in which the close relationship with the esophagus suggests that this tumor is a choristoma rather than a hamartoma. To our knowledge, such a theory has not been previously proposed.
