Abstract
Angiolipoma is a rare benign tumor composed of mature adipose tissues and blood vessels. It is usually located in the subcutaneous tissue of the trunk, the extremities and the neck, and few cases of angiolipoma have been reported in the mediastinum. We report here on a rare case of posterior mediastinal angiolipoma that presented with pleural effusion.
