Figure 1 An MRI scan of the chest demonstrates a 4.3 × 7.7-cm anterosuperior mediastinal mass abutting the aortic arch, its branches, and the left main pulmonary artery without signs of invasion.

Figure 2 A CT scan of the chest demonstrates a large heterogeneous enhancing mass occupying the entire left hemithorax with mediastinal shift to the right. At resection, the tumor was multilobulated and well circumscribed with a pseudocapsule. It weighed 13 pounds and measured 40 × 25 × 12 cm.
