ABSTRACT

Neste trabalho é relatado o caso de uma mulher de 51 anos de idade, com dor torácica, dispneia e engurgitamento de vasos do tórax superior, sem evidências clínicas de doença granulomatosa. O estudo por imagem do tórax revelou massa mediastinal com calcificações, abordada por mediastinoscopia com biópsia. A análise histopatológica mostrou padrão inflamatório crônico sem etiologia definida, compatível com mediastinite fibrosante.
