[Mediastinal hemangioma (case report)].
We present radiographic and computed tomographic findings of a mediastinal hemangioma, a very rare benign vascular tumor that comprises less than 0.5% of all mediastinal masses. Posteroanterior chest film showed a homogeneous opacity in the left upper zone that was contiguous with the mediastinum. Computed tomography demonstrated a mediastinal mass with inhomogeneous contrast enhancement and a small calcification.
