Figure 1 Diagnostic computed tomography scan of the chest, soft tissue windows. Axial slices show the right upper lobe tumor (A, arrow) with central adenopathy (B, arrow). (C) Sagittal slice showing the enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes with secondary superior vena cava compression (arrow).

Figure 2 Diagnostic computed tomography scan of the chest, bone windows. (A and B) Axial slices through vertebrae T2 and T3, respectively, with increased density of the central parts of the vertebral bodies (arrows). (C) Sagittal slide showing the same vertebral body densities (small arrows) and the connection between the paravertebral vein and venous vertebral plexus (large arrow). (D) Three-dimensional rendering of the clearly enlarged paravertebral venous plexus.

Figure 3 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography computed tomography scan images after stent placement in the superior vena cava. On the bone window computed tomography scans, vertebrae T2 and T3 no longer show increased vertebral body densities (A, axial; B, sagittal). (C) Sagittal positron emission tomography images confirm the absence of metabolic activity in the vertebral column.
