Compression of the superior vena cava by a mediastinal lipoma.

C Del Campo1, P P Mpougas.   

Abstract

Lipomas are rarely found in the mediastinum. Although they may reach large proportions, they rarely compress vascular structures. We present a case in which a lipoma produced superior vena cava syndrome. Urgent surgical decompression was required.
