- imaging of fibrosing mediastinitis

finding in CXR

imaging of fibrosing mediastinitis

- diffuse right lung consolidation and some volume loss plus a small right pleural effusion with mild right paratracheal widening with cardiomegaly

CT chest

- finding in CT chest

- imaging of fibrosing mediastinoscopy

finding in CT chest

imaging of fibrosing mediastinoscopy

- contrast enhancement at the level of the aortic arch demonstrates right paratracheal lymphadenopathy

- compression of the upper-lobe bronchi bilaterally and resultant atelectasis of upper-lobe segments in both right and left lungs

- more caudal at the level of the pulmonary artery : complete obstruction of the right pulmonary artery with calcified lymph nodes

- more caudal at the level of the left atrium, calcified lymph nodes are also seen occluding the right-middle-lobe bronchus
