Mediastinal histoplasmosis granuloma: evaluation with CT.
Mediastinal granuloma secondary to histoplasmosis was described in three patients. Computed tomographic scans in each patient demonstrated a large, low-attenuation mediastinal mass crossed by enhancing septae. Other granulomatous diseases may produce similar abnormalities. The differential diagnosis of such lesions was discussed.
