Abstract
|
|
|
|
The posterior mediastinum is a rare site of origin for seminoma, and extensive cystic change of a seminoma is rarely observed. We present here the case of a 62-year-old male patient with a primary posterior mediastinal seminoma that was encasing the descending thoracic aorta and the tumor showed prominent cystic change on CT and MRI, and intense FDG uptake on PET/CT.
