5 yaşında erkek hasta, 4 yıl önce solunum yolu enfeksiyonu için başvurduğu çocuk acil servisinde çekilen direkt akciğer grafisinde üst mediastende genişleme saptanmış. Başka bir merkezde göğüs cerrahisi kliniği tarafından hasta 4 yıl boyunca takip edilmiş. Lezyonda progresif büyüme olması üzerine hasta kliniğimizde operasyona alındı.

A case of intrathoracic extrapulmonary giant lipoma in a child

5-year-old male patient was admitted to the pediatric emergency department for respiratory tract infection 4 years ago. Direct chest X-ray showed enlargement of the upper mediastinum. The patient was followed for 4 years by a thoracic surgery clinic in another center. Due to the progressive growth of the lesion, the patient was operated in our clinic. Totally excised 10 cm lesion was presented in the literature as a very rare case of intrathoracic extrapulmonary lipoma of this size in children.
