Abstract

901 tumor not enhanced by contrast media (diame‐ ter, 63 mm) in the posterior mediastinum. The tu‐ mor compressed the upper surface of the left atri‐ um and the inferior wall of the right pulmonary artery causing blood flow limitation. Additional‐ ly, enlargement of subcarinal, lower paratrache‐ al, and right hilar lymph nodes was diagnosed. At that time, inflammatory markers were with‐ in the reference range. In the thoracic surgery de‐ partment, after bronchoscopy and endobronchial A 33 ‐year ‐old man, not treated before, had a his‐ tory of one episode of atrial fibrillation (AF). A tumor behind the left atrium was revealed in a transthoracic echocardiogram (FIGURE 1A–C). The patient was admitted to the hospital, where a thoracic X ‐ray showed linear and nodular opac‐ ities in the superior segments of the upper lobes suggesting inactive tuberculosis. A thoracic com‐ puted tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MRI) were performed, and revealed a benign CLINICAL IMAGE
紧跟着线索:心房颤动的意外原因。
901例后纵隔肿瘤未经造影剂增强(直径63 mm)。肺动脉压迫左心房上表面和右肺动脉下壁,导致血流受限。此外,还诊断出隆突下、下气管旁和右肺门淋巴结肿大。当时,炎症标志物在参考范围内。在胸外科科室,一位33岁的男性患者在接受支气管镜检查和支气管内治疗后,有一次房颤发作的病史。经胸超声心动图显示左心房后方肿瘤(图1A-C)。患者入院,胸部X线片显示上肺叶上段线状和结节性混浊,提示非活动性肺结核。行胸部计算机断层扫描(CT)和磁共振(MRI),临床表现为良性
