Computed tomography of low periesophageal focal fat collections
1Department of Radiology, University of Virginia Medical School, Charlottesville.
Abstract:
Focal fat collections in the middle compartment of the lower mediastinum are reported in the literature. However, this explanation for a mass in that location is not widely recognized. We found four cases of focal fat collections on routine computed tomography. We then reviewed 100 consecutive computed tomography scans and found another four examples.
