Primary mediastinal ectopic goiter (PMG) is defined as
the presence of thyroid tissue in the mediastinum without having a continuity between the cervical thyroid
and the mediastinal goiter. A fifty-seven year-old man admitted to our clinic
suffering from dyspnea, chest pain, shortness of breath, and dysphagia for almost
two months. Thorax computed tomography revealed a mass of 12 cm in the
posterior mediastinum, compressing the trachea and esophagus. The mass is
resected completely via a right thoracotomy.
