Abstract:
A case of recurrent mediastinal goiter (oxyphilic cell carcinoma) in a 66-year-old female was reported. 19 years ago, the patient submitted to a right-hemithyroidectomy for the oxyphilic cell adenoma. Since two months, her dyspnea gradually aggravated. On admission, abnormal mass of right upper mediastinum was shown by chest X-ray. CT scan and MRI showed a 8 cm sized right upper mediastinal tumor with tracheal compression.
