Thrombosed giant left atrium mimicking a mediastinal tumor.

D Rimon, L Cohen, J Rosenfeld.   

Abstract

A patient with rheumatic heart disease, mitral stenosis, and mitral insufficiency is described. The thrombosed giant left atrium paralyzed the left vocal cord and completely obstructed the bronchi to the middle and lower lobes of the right lung. The giant left atrium mimicked a mediastinal tumor on the chest x-ray film.
