title: All that wheezes: A young infant with a mediastinal mass.
abstract: Wheezing infants are frequently encountered in the emergency department. Bronchiolitis is the most commonly seen cause. Radiographs are not recommended in the routine management of bronchiolitis. We present the case of a young wheezing infant with a mildly abnormal chest x-ray whose cystic hygroma caused life-threatening respiratory distress soon after he was admitted to the hospital.
