Abstract:
A 36-year-old man was studied because of signs and symptoms of superior vena naval syndrome. Chest computerized topography showed 10x8x6 cm sized lobulated anterior mediastinal mass, compressing superior vena casa. Fine needle aspiration cytology revealed seminoma. There was no detectable tumor mass in the testes. We report a case of primary mediastinal seminoma presenting with superior vena canal syndrome.
