Abstract

Mediastinal vascular malformations are rare and their diagnosis can be challenging. Imaging is vital for diagnosing mediastinal vascular malformations and can help avoid unnecessary invasive procedures. Herein, we report the detailed CT and MRI findings of a rare low-flow mediastinal vascular malformation in an asymptomatic 63-year-old male.

종격동 혈관 기형은 매우 드물며 진단이 어려울 수 있다. 영상은 이러한 종격동 혈관 기형의 진단에 있어 중요한 역할을 하며 불필요한 침습적 시술을 피하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있다. 이에 저자들은 63세 무증상 남성에서 발생한 저혈류성 종격동 혈관기형의 자세한 전산화단층촬영 및 자기공명영상 소견을 보고하고자 한다.
