Benign vascular tumors of the mediastinum are rare, representing only 0.5% of all mediastinal masses. Given their rare presentation, they are infrequently considered in the workup of a middle mediastinal mass. We present a unique case describing the clinical, imaging and pathologic characteristics of a middle mediastinal cavernous hemangioma which was initially misdiagnosed as a bronchogenic cyst and ultimately required surgical resection with the use of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Introduction: cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging is considered the standard of care for many clinical cardiovascular applications. Magnetic resonance imaging is a scarce resource in sub-Saharan Africa, with a paucity of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging clinical services and research. The aim of this audit was to review the cardiac magnetic resonance imaging service provided at a public tertiary hospital in Cape Town, Western Cape Province, South Africa.

Background: Venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) are the second-leading cause of death in cancer patients, with an incidence of 5%-17% in lymphoma patients, particularly higher in those with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Existing risk assessment models (RAMs) like the Khorana and ThroLy scores have limitations and are inadequately validated for NHL patients. Coagulation markers such as D-dimer, thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), and thrombomodulin (TM) show a potential predictive value for cancer-associated VTE but lack extensive research in NHL.
