Case Study
10_00060 Myla H Cranial mediastinal mass—NEED SL——–
Sonographic Differential Diagnosis
Cranial mediastinal masses, suspect lymphoma, possible Thymoma. FNA were performed without complication.
Possible lung mass; however, no significant peripheral air entrapment was noted. Therefore lymph node origin is suspected. Recommend oncology consultation and abdominal screening for primary neoplasia as this may represent a metastatic pattern through the lymphatic tract.
Image Interpretation
Cranial mediastinal lymph node mass was noted and measured 7.4 x 3.0 cm on the left cranial and another mass in the right cranial region was noted and measured 5.2 x 4.5 cm. This is strongly suggestive for lymphoma.
