Mediastinal large-cell lymphoma with sclerosis is an uncommon non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This study details its clinical and radiologic presentation, noting diagnostic challenges and characteristic features of large anterior mediastinal masses.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Mediastinal large-cell lymphoma with sclerosis is an uncommon subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
  • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To retrospectively review clinical and radiologic features of mediastinal large-cell lymphoma with sclerosis.
  • To identify key diagnostic indicators and challenges associated with this rare lymphoma subtype.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 20 patient records diagnosed with mediastinal large-cell lymphoma with sclerosis.
  • Clinical data and radiologic findings at presentation were analyzed.
  • Ann Arbor classification was used for staging.

Main Results:

  • The majority of patients (15/20) presented with early-stage disease (I or II).
  • Common symptoms included chest pain, dyspnea, and cough, with superior vena cava obstruction in 7 patients.
  • Mediastinal masses were large (mean diameter 10.8 cm), anteriorly located, and showed low-attenuation areas.
  • Initial pathologic diagnosis was incorrect in 40% of cases.

Conclusions:

  • Mediastinal large-cell lymphoma with sclerosis presents with characteristic large, anterior mediastinal masses.
  • Superior vena cava obstruction is a significant clinical feature.
  • Diagnostic errors highlight the need to include this entity in the differential diagnosis of anterior mediastinal masses.
