Lung and mediastinum to a tumor or some disease in the superior vena cava taking an edition of the "superior vena cava syndrome" in cases of superficial veins of the chest expansion husule collateral and income. The main clinical symptoms in the face, neck and chest, edema, hyperemia (pletori), increased venous pressure in the top half of the body of headache, dizziness and feeling of choking, coughing, difficulty swallowing, drowsiness, and dyspnoea. The main causes of superior vena cava syndrome of malignant tumors. In rare cases of benign diseases caused by "benign superior vena cava syndrome" is. For Diagnostic computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used consulted. Venography is necessary. Extension of time will cause an increase in venous pressure and circulatory disease. Where there is blockage Venografi'de funnel-shaped appearance of benign superior vena cava syndrome is an important finding.
The main causes of superior vena cava syndrome in benign medias-tinitis (tuberculosis and other infections), benign tumors, aortic aneurysm, pericarditis, heart diseases and surgical intervention.
Clinical symptoms of benign superior vena cava syndrome is difficult to diagnose. Important to have a prognosis of the disease is insidious and slowly progressive, it takes months and years. However, in malignant superior vena cava syndrome, there is rapid progress, this period can be measured several weeks.
Developing an effective collateral circulation in cases of disease shows a more benign clinical presentation. Collateral circulation beyond the region of obstruction is related santiarla.
The treatment of benign superior vena cava syndrome is usually symptomatic. In some cases, surgery is a good result.

Aortic Aneurysm
A shadow in the mediastinum tumors can also occur for other reasons. For example, aortic aneurysm, enlargement of the esophagus, hiatal hernia, Haematoma paraver-vertebral abscess and tumor develops in a similar radiological appearance.
Many mediastinal tumors should be considered in the differential diagnosis of aortic aneurysm. A classification according to localization of the aortic aneurysm is divided into three: (1) ascending aorta aneurysm, (2) of the aortic arch aneurysm and (3) aneurysm of the descending aorta.
Forward and turning to the right shows a development of the ascending aorta aneurysm. Eroding the sternum and the front creates a pulsation that is an important finding for diagnosis. Aortic arch aneurysm occurred and adjacent structures by printing metallic cough, hemoptysis, hoarseness, face and upper extremities syanoza causes. This type of middle mediastinum developed aortic aneurysms daraltırlar window. Descending thoracic aortic aneurysms may cause clinical symptoms without creating abrasion vertebraliste kolumna developed. oarta descending aneurysms arteriyosklerotik many times nature. Calcification thoracic aortic aneurysms are quite common.
Clinical symptoms of the disease varies according to location and size of aortic aneurysms. If the venous pressure of superior vena cava aneurysm in an increase in pressure, neck, face and shoulders edema occurs. Trachea and bronchi pressure, cough, and dyspnea, dysphagia esophagus causing pressure. Erosion of the sternum aneurysm of the ascending aorta, aortic arch aneurysm is a serious pain symptoms. Aneurysm of the descending aorta, spine and ribs can cause premature wear. Structural injury or abnormal changes in dissecting aortic aneurysms, as if a sudden and severe pain in the retrosternal region begins, is mixed with the pain of myocardial infarction. Patients with shock, excitement, sweating, tachypnea, and hypertension are taşirkardi. When the suspicion of dissecting aneurysm of carotid, brachial, radial and femoral artery pulsations often be palpated.
Radiological examination in the diagnosis of thoracic aortic aneurysm has an important place, especially computer tomography. If you have doubt about the diagnosis should aortography. Bronchoscopy is dangerous, can be sudden death ruptürüyle aorta.
Treatment of aortic aneurysm disease lökolizasyonuna, depending on the clinical and radiological findings. Acute-serious "fatal" cases, surgical intervention is applied.

Mediastinitis
Acute mediastinitis is that the majority of cases of esophageal perforation. The main causes of esophageal foreign body perforation, cancer, endoscopy kompilkasyonu and vomiting. Mediastinitis in patients with acute retrosternal pain developed a sudden illness is spread lengthwise. Chills and fever rises. Symptoms of superior vena cava can be seen in print. Esophageal perforation with mediastinitis in cases of acute soft tissue of the neck so many times under the skin, emphysema (air) are available. Auscultation mediastinal emphysema in relation to the apex of the heart, "Hamman symptom" is heard. Hamman sign of a changing heart rate and to be heard çıtırtının. When the pericardium is heard in the air. Delayed treatment of acute mediastinitis esophagus, mediastinum, lung, or pleura may develop abscesses.
Radiography of cases of acute mediastinitis mediastinum, including the upper section of more homogeneous and the surrounding area is enlarged in a certain way. Mediastinitis related to puncture of the esophagus can be seen in the mediastinum and neck in the air. Yutunca radiopaque substance, or pleural space that the patient go periözofagus confirm the diagnosis.
Acute mediastinitis is treated with appropriate antibiotics and parenteral nutrition. The successful outcome of treatment is not received surgical intervention (especially surgical drainage) should be applied.
The main causes of chronic mediastinitisin tuberculosis, fungal infections, sarkoidosis, silicosis. Mediastinal fibrosis, chronic granulomatous disease and histopathologic changes of this kind do. Mediastinitisin Turkey is an important cause of chronic tuberculosis.
There is no clinical symptoms in most patients with chronic mediastinitis. In some cases, superior vena cava, esophagus, trachea and bronşa pressure symptoms rarely develop esophageal bronchial fistula. As a sign of superior vena cava pressure in patients with dizziness, headache, ringing in the ears, face, neck and arms are swollen. Collateral circulation increases, these symptoms are reduced. There is no fire or sübfebril nature.
A change in radiographic appearance of abnormal mediastinal shadows kuşkulanılır diagnosed with chronic mediastinitis. Computer tomography, scalene lymph node biopsy and tissue biopsy was performed, especially by means of mediastinoscopy confirmed the diagnosis. Histopathological and cultural examination of tissue biopsy is taken.

Neurogenic tumors
Neurogenic tumors are usually localized to the mediastinum. The main neurogenic tumor is usually benign neurofibroma. Neurofibromas barbell shapes look like the "dumbbell tumor" is also known as. Erosion of vertebrae or intervertebral foramen enlargement do. Pressure caused by growing signs of an improvement as they are malignant or be removed by surgery. Diagnosis is confirmed by surgery many times.
Thyroid Tumors (Intrathoracic Goitre), Thyroid Tumor
Intrathoracic goitre is a common anterior mediastinal tumor. Three quarters of the cases the lower end of the mass of the thyroid or in front of the anterior mediastinum istmusundan developed tra-Keane goes down. These are generally nontoxic nodule-lerdir. There are some cases of thyrotoxicosis. Karsinoma'ya development is rare. Approximately one quarter of the cases developed posterior mediastinum behind the falls, and posterior mediastinal thyroid mass are localized.
In most cases no clinical signs of intrathoracic goitre. The main clinical symptoms of respiratory difficulties related to compression of the trachea, inspiratory and expiratory stridor'u, hoarseness and signs of thyrotoxicosis. Tracheal compression of the neck movements due to breathing difficulties increases. Recurrent laryngeal nerve is related to printing hoarseness; benign goitre adenomalarında also be monitored. Posterior mediastinal goitre in some cases of dysphagia and the "superior vena cava syndrome are symptoms. On physical examination, the patient yutkunduğu goitre'nın supresternal time out of the region can be palpated.
Radiological examination of the upper mediastinum in front of a flat or slice, around the well to a certain concentration is homogeneous. Calcification is common and is quite an important finding for diagnosis. Since the anterior meidasten goitre'ı trachea and pushes back. The posterior mediastinum in the trachea goitre'ı forward, backward and sideways pushes the esophagus.
Parathyroid Tumors
Rare tumors of the anterior mediastinum. Radiographs are usually not considered very small. In some cases, the parathyroid tumor of the mediastinum is seen as a mass of abnormal unilateral. In some cases, there are signs of local compression.
Paratirioid tumors clinical, radiological and laboratory findings are diagnostic. Most of these tumors are displaying activity in patients with anorexia, malaise, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, constipation, and there are clinical signs such as decrease in muscle tone. Radiographic examination of the bones related to the changes seen in hyperparathyroidism. Laboratory examination of the hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia, hypercalciuria, and there are signs of an increase in serum alkaline fosfatazında.

Laboratory examination of the hypercalcemia, hypophosphatemia, hypercalciuria, and there are signs of an increase in serum alkaline fosfatazında.
Lymphoma and lymphadenopathies
Middle mediastinum in approximately 90% of the malignant nature of the masses. This is a significant rate of malignant lymphoma is related developments. The second group of malignant lesions in the mediastinum, lung, gastrointestinal or kidney cancers originated. There is a close relationship with bronchopulmonary lenfadenopatilerinin mediastinal lymph flow. In other words, when the mediastinum adenopatisi growth observed in bronchopulmonary ganglia. Lymphadenopathy is usually unilateral primary lesion in the lung. Some primary lung cancer, especially small cell carcinoma of parenchymal lesions or mediastinal adenopathy but hard to overlook small enough to be seen or not seen.
The majority of patients with metastatic mediastinal adenopatisi retrosternal pain, fever, cough, and dyspnea are symptoms such as. More rapid progression of dyspnoea belirip a lymphatic spread widely in the lungs is indicated. Superior vena cava syndrome, hoarseness, phrenic nerve paralysis and Horner's syndrome monograph also common symptoms.
Tuberculosis, histoplasmosis, and sarkoidosis cause lymphadenopathy and madias-tinitise. These diseases are primarily and tracheo-bronchial adenopatilerini paratrakea form. Primarily unilateral granulomatous lymphadenopathy in the development of infectious origin. Sarkoidoz'da many times in the bilateral lymphadenopathy and simetrikdir. Another feature of sarcoidosis in the mediastinum adenopatilerinin is that almost every patient with bronchopulmonary adenopatilerin. Lymph nodes are usually seen in calcification is indicated that the nature of infectious etiology.
Cysts
The incidence of mediastinal cysts are rare. Usually benign. The most common mediastinal bronchogenic cysts, and dermoid cysts. Bron-Kojen cysts of the upper mediastinum, in regions close to bifürkasyona trachea, hilar, mediastinal, or any area adjacent to the esophagus are found. Most oval or yuvarlakdır. Some cysts show an advanced level of the bronchi hidroaerik discharged. Subsidiary of the mediastinum in patients with bronchial infections and abscesses can occur. Mediastinal cysts are usually diagnostic radiographic examination.
Echinococcus cysts (hydatid cyst) may be localized to the mediastinum and bronchi are sometimes opened. Written in parasitic diseases of the lung hydatid cyst.

Thymus Tumors (What is Thymoma)
Timusun thymoma are called primary tumors. May be benign or malignant Timomalar. Benign or malignant tumor, many times, showing that there is clinical or radiological signs. Invade adjacent organs by malignant timomalar causes of fatal complications. Timomaların distant metastases are rare.
Myasthenia gravis is frequently observed in cases of thymoma. Thymectomy in myasthenia gravis symptoms in some cases a significant reduction in lost or monitored. However, some symptoms of myasthenia gravis patients after surgery will not change. Therefore, the relationship between thymoma and myasthenia gravis thymus cloth is not certain. The main symptoms of myasthenia gravis, fatigue, muscular weakness. Pitosis'i eyelids, muscle weakness, drowsiness, difficulty in chewing and swallowing, cough, dyspnea, causing symptoms such as hoarseness. Audio kısıklığını saydırılır to unmask the patient number. Accessed up to 40 or 50 when the patient's voice changes, difficulty counting. Dyspnea at rest before the exertion is determined later. Cough weak nature. Some patients even though they need ekspektorasyon strong cough sputum çıkaramadıklarından not complain. This is an important symptom.
Thymoma cases of Cushing's sendomu, agammaglobulinemia, aplastic anemia, the hematologic abnormalities such as leukopenia and thrombocytopenia are observed.
Selina timomalar clinical symptoms do not usually grow slowly. They understand the radiographic examination. Malignant timomalar grew increasingly trachea, superior vena cava, pericardium, and other neighboring structures are infiltrated. Symptoms of myasthenia gravis with thymoma in the anterior mediastinum is usually a localized tumor.
Timomalar localized to the anterior mediastinum behind the sternum. Standard radiography remains hidden among the shadows of cardiovascular many times. Side and oblique radiographs, especially tomography provided a more objective view.
Timomalar radiograph are seen mainly in two ways. The first type of tumor is seen as an oval, or slice, can be in the calcification. The second type of tumor is in the form of a plate perikarda or adjacent to large vessels, is difficult to be identified. Standard radiograph of the right or the left limit of the upper mediastinum are enlarged. Timomaların side views are more specific than radiography in the form of plaque. Other signs of lateral or oblique radiographs of the nose in the form of Semitic (Jew's nose) is a view, further radiological done for Computer Tomography.
Thymectomy Timomada the treatment of choice. Lost or reduced in some cases, the symptoms of myasthenia gravis after thymectomy. Abnormalities and other abnormalities of blood is lost many times.

Mediastinal Diseases
Right and left lungs, mediastinum overlying the medial portion of the remaining gap between plevralar is diyafragmalara opening extends from the upper thorax. Sternal border of the front, rear and side plevraların thoracic vertebrae are parts of the mediastinum. For easy identification of the mediastinum and diseases of the mediastinum is divided into four regions:
1. The upper mediastinum. The mediastinum is the space above the pericardium, the first four thoracic vertebrae behind the front and sides manubriyum Sterne mediastinum is bordered by plevraları.
2. Anterior mediastinum. And under the sternum is located behind the upper front Perikardiyum'un mediasten'in.
3. Middle mediastinum. Are at the upper mediastinum. Heart and perikardium are included here.
4. Rear mediastinum. Your heart is located behind and in front of the lower eight thoracic vertebralarının.
Mediastinum disease represents a small portion of thoracic diseases. Clinical and radiological diagnosis is difficult because of the similarities.
40% of malignant tumors of the masses in the mediastinum. And most of these malignant tumors are localized to the anterior and middle mediastinal compartments. In most of these diseases without clinical signs initially has a secret development. Routine chest X-ray feature is not present so many times is the expansion of the mediastinum. Detailed view is for the computer tomography.
Mediastinal Tumors
Tumors of the mediastinum mediastinum, mediastinitis or empyema by printing the vital organs and cause serious complications such as malignant degeneration.
Clinical symptoms. Benign tumors of the mediastinum without clinical signs or mild clinical symptoms develop suspicious. Benign tumors without signs of pain or mild pain or pressure sensitivity with blunt cesamete have access to very large. Generally, a malignant tumor-associated severe chest pains. The pain of the tumor brachial plexus, intercostal nerves, bone, and pleural pressure, or infiltrasyonuyla develops. As symptoms of the respiratory tract and lung parenkiması cough, dyspnea, stridor, orthopnea, and has syanoz. Phrenic nerve of the edition with the hiccup or diaphragmatic paralysis, recurrent laryngeal nerve in relation to the hoarseness, in relation to the vagus bradycardia, vomiting, and Horner's syndrome can develop. Esophagus tumor progression leads to dysphagia. Scroll to the vena cava tumor syanoz daraltmasiyle him, collateral venous dilatations, and edema develops. Vena cava obstruction symptoms of exertion or body bent only shows up when you initially.
Fever, zayıfllama, systemic symptoms such as fatigue and anemia than once a malignant tumor is related. Systemic symptoms are rare benign tumors. Sometimes benign tumors may cause symptoms of systemic infection, complications do.
Usually there is abnormal findings on physical examination or belirtisizdir. Significant complications occurred in a structure such as bronchial obstruction or pleural effusion, or if you have pressure on phrenic nerve is monitored physical examination findings. Increased anterior mediastinal tumors are located in the mediastinum matitesinin a common symptom related.
Diagnosis
For the diagnosis of mediastinal tumors have a better radiological investigations, especially computer tomography. Rontgenoscopy this issue should not be neglected. Radiological examination of the mediastinum baryumla Esophagus tumor tumor-related vascular abnormalities in this organ provides a view of the interest gösterir.Magnetik resonance. If you have a tumor in the larynx or trachea attached onto the top opening up the chest moves with swallowing. These tumors are often of thyroid origin.
Benign tumors grow very slowly. Rapidly growing tumors are usually malignant nature. Physical examination reviews less important radiological diagnosis. However, abnormal physical examination findings followed a simple move of great importance. For example, increasing the neck and upper extremity venous pressure of superior vena cava obstruction syndrome observed in an objective finding. Circulation time (arm-language period) increase in the superior vena cava syndrome is an important finding in the other followed.
Audio cords paralysis if the suspicion must laryngoscopy. The belief that bronchoscopy should be performed if the mediastinal tumor bronchus. Aortography confirm the diagnosis in cases of aortic aneurysm.
Two features that are used in the diagnosis of mediastinal tumors: (1) location of the tumor, (2) characteristics of the tumor.
(1) of the tumor location. Substernal goitre, teratoma, dermoid cysts and tumors of the thymus usually show an anterior mediastinal localization. Most lymphomas seen in the middle mediastinum mediastinum region. Paravertebral posterior mediastinal neurogenic tumors usually are localized in the region.
(2) characteristics of the tumor. Teratoid and neurogenic tumors are usually unilateral. Fibroma, thymoma, and enlarged bilateral thyroid tumors. Adenoması thyroid tumors, and teratomas kuşkulanılır calcification occurs. Teratoid tumors can be seen in teeth and bone. Neurogenic tumors do erosion vertebrae. Boundaries are usually benign tumors thoroughly indefinite. Uncertain environments are likely to be malignant tumors, or well belirlenemiyen. Circles of the cysts are usually well indefinite. There is a view of lobular Teratomalarm. Substernal thyroid moves with swallowing.
Diagnosis and prognosis of mediastinal disease, mediastinoscopy is an important method for the evaluation. Mediastinoscopy is particularly useful in the diagnosis of malignant diseases.
Other abnormalities may be related to a tumor shadow in the mediastinum. For example, aortic aneurysm, enlargement of the esophagus, hiatal hermia, paravertebral abscess and tumor-like radiographic appearance may develop Haematoma.
