Mediastinal Paraganglioma [PDF]

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2017
Paragangliomas of the mediastinum are rare, with only approximately 150 cases reported in the literature. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice; however, these tumors often lie near critical vascular structures. Here we present the case of a patient with a mediastinal paraganglioma discovered during a diagnostic procedure.
