Intrathoracic ganglioneuroma: case report.

Ganglioneuromas are rare, benign neoplasms, arising from the sympathetic nervous system. The posterior mediastinum is the most common location of this neurogenic tumour. We present this case because of the problem of its diagnosis. Our patient had in fact been under observation for about twenty years. The size of the tumour caused a restriction of the pulmonary function.
