We report a case of a patient with intrathoracic extramedullary hematopoiesis presenting as a posterior mediastinal tumor, without associated myelofibrosis. Pathophysiology and the options for diagnosis and treatment in this condition are discussed.

The goal of this study was to summarize the radiological findings and clinical characteristics of mediastinal Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (ES/PNET) in children. A retrospective review was conducted on the clinical and imaging data of 6 children with primary mediastinal ES/PNET that was confirmed by pathology. There were 3 girls and 3 boys in this study, aged between 2 and 11 years old.

Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism and rarely reaches huge sizes. As the gland enlarges it may exhibit atypical morphology and extension to the mediastinum which may complicate the excision of the tumor while preserving the capsular integrity. We present a 35-year-old male patient who was referred to our department with a complaint of severe hypercalcemia.

Introduction: Currently, few prospective guidelines exist for the surveillance of children with low-risk neuroblastic tumors (LRNBTs), including ganglioneuroma or ganglioneuroblastoma intermixed. This study aims to describe our institutional approach to LRNBT surveillance following surgical resection or nonoperative management. We hypothesize that length of surveillance can be reduced due to low recurrence risk.

Torsion of extralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital anomalous condition that can manifest with various symptoms, including abdominal pain. However, a masslike lesion in the mediastinum can be easily overlooked when the clinician focuses only on abdominal pain. By using magnetic resonance imaging, a few features specific to the torsion of extralobar pulmonary sequestration can be identified, and that information will be helpful.
