Fat-fluid level in pleural effusion as a complication of a mediastinal dermoid: CT characteristics.

L J Yeoman1, H R Dalton, E J Adam.   

Abstract

The CT findings in a 24-year-old woman with acute chest symptoms revealed excess mediastinal soft tissue and a fat-containing cavity. A fat-fluid level in a pleural effusion suggested preoperatively the diagnosis of mediastinal teratoma, which had leaked into the pleural space.
