Fibrosing mediastinitis is a rare chronic inflammatory condition characterized by excessive fibrotic process in the mediastinum. Although various infectious processes are more common causes, it can also be related to several malignancies. We report a case of a 28-year-old woman with fibrosing mediastinitis related to an aggressive primary gray-zone lymphoma causing complete occlusion of the superior vena cava (SVC) and the innominate veins.

Background: Several studies have attempted to demonstrate the associations between body mass index (BMI) in early age and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, their findings were inconsistent and inconclusive, indicating the need for further investigation.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies focusing on BMI in early age (age from 2 to 22) in relation to CVDs in adulthood, including coronary artery disease (CHD), ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, myocardial infarction and heart failure.
