Abstract:
:After a short description of mediastinal anatomy and embryology, the authors illustrate the division of the mediastinum, based on criteria of either surgical anatomy or radiological anatomy. Lastly, they discuss the topographical distribution of the mediastinal masses in anterior, visceral, and posterior compartments of the mediastinum.
