Primary mediastinal hemangiopericytoma: computed tomography correlation.
A case of primary mediastinal hemangiopericytoma with computed tomography correlation is presented. Although this is rare cause of mediastinal mass, the diagnosis should be considered when computed tomography of the mass shows contrast medium enhancement, particularly if there is a curvilinear encircling structure suggesting a large feeder vessel.
