GUZMAN-DE ALBA, Enrique; HERNANDEZ-RAMIREZ, Israel; GARZA-JIMENEZ, Guillermo Óscar y RECINOS-CARRERA, Elio Germán. Thoracoscopic surgery for mediastinal glomangioma: Case report. Neumol. cir. torax [online]. 2018, vol.77, n.3, pp.218-221. ISSN 0028-3746.
Mediastinal tumors represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for medical team. Depending on the tumor location and patient age group we can have an idea about diagnostic possibilities; sometimes this is not feasible and a surgical approach becomes necessary both as diagnostic and therapeutic. We present the case of a patient with a highly vascular mediastinal tumor that was resected by a thoracoscopic approach, final histopathological report was a glomangioma, a rare tumor derived from myoepithelial cells.
