1 An Idiopathic Azygos Vein Aneurysm Mimicking a Mediastinal Mass
Yoshinobu Ichiki, MD, PhD, Takayuki Hamatsu, MD, PhD, Taketoshi Suehiro, MD, PhD, Makiko Koike, MD, PhD, Fumihiro Tanaka, MD, PhD, Keizo Sugimachi, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 98, Issue 1, Pages (July 2014) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2014 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 (A) Chest roentgenogram revealed an abnormal shadow in the mediastinal field. (B) Chest computed tomography (CT) after intravenous contrast enhancement confirmed the presence of a slowly enhancing mass in the pathway of the azygos arch, which measured 3.5 cm. (C) Contrast-enhanced 3-dimensional CT revealed an enhanced posterior mediastinal mass, which was connected with the azygos arch. (D) T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed heterogeneous enhancement of the posterior mediastinal mass after the intravenous injection of gadolinium.

3 Fig 2 An aneurysmal dilatation of the azygos vein was confirmed intraoperatively. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2014 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 The histopathologic findings of a hematoxylin and eosin–stained section showed a cystically dilated and blood-filled venous structure with a muscle coat of variable thickness (×40).
