Abstract:
A case of asymptomatic 44-year-old male patient with moderate arterial hypertension, misdiagnosed as aortic aneurysm, is reported. Additional diagnostics (transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, CT scan) revealed the presence of mediastinal tumor, diagnosed at operation as vagal neurinoma. Early and late results of therapy are described.
