title: Gaucher's disease. An unusual cause of intrathoracic extramedullary hematopoiesis.
abstract: A thoracic paravertebral mass in an asymptomatic woman with type 1 Gaucher's disease proved to be due to extramedullary hematopoiesis. This is, to our knowledge, the first case of intrathoracic extramedullary hematopoiesis reported with Gaucher's disease.
