Abstract:
We describe a case of thoracic actinomycosis in a previously healthy man. The clinical features were a paramediastinal mass with skin lesions due to haematogenic dissemination. After parasternal mediastomy, the diagnosis was made. After treatment with penicillin, there was complete recovery.
