Abstract:
A 44-year-old male affected by mesenchymoma of the mediastinum was treated surgically. The neoplasm, localized in the postero-inferior mediastinum with prevalent development to the left, was found to consist of adipose, leiomuscular and myxoid tissue. The patient was asymptomatic. Complete removal of the neoplasm proved possible, and one year after surgery no signs of recurrence were present. Few cases of mediastinal mesenchymoma have been reported.
