Abstract

Mediastinal leiomyomas are usually of esophageal origin, among which primary mediastinal leiomyomas are extremely rare. The current approach to the treatment of giant primary mediastinal leiomyoma involves the removal of the mass by thoracic surgery. We present here a case with leiomyoma of the poste- rior mediastinum that was compressing the trachea, and that was diagnosed via EBUS TBNA

Özet

Mediyastinal leiomyomlar genellikle özefagus köken- lidir. Primer mediastinal leiomyom ise oldukça nadir görülmektedir. Dev primer mediyastinal leiomyomun tedavisi torasik cerrahi ile kitlenin çıkarılmasıdır. Bu yazıda EBUS TBİA ile tanı konulan ve trakeaya bası yapan arka mediastende leiomyomu olan olguyu sunduk.
