Abstract
A 51-year-old man presented with dyspnea for one month. Computed tomography scan of the thorax showed a 5.4x5.2 cm well-circumscribed mass with popcorn calcification near left pulmonary artery and proximal descending aorta in the anterior mediastinum. SUVmax value of the lesion on PET-CT was 2.7. Tumor was completely resected through a left posterior-lateral thoracotomy. The final pathological diagnosis was a hamartoma of the anterior mediastinum.
