[Neurogenic mediastinal tumors in adults].

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Neurogenic mediastinal tumors are tumors develop at the expense of peripheral nerve elements of the mediastinum, the sympathetic nervous tissue and paraganglia. The series that we propose has the distinction of a high frequency of malignant forms and a wealth of clinical symptomatology. METHODS:This is a retrospective study of 9 patients collected over a period of 6 years. The epidemiological aspect, clinical, radiological, surgical treatment and his results, histological diagnosis and prognosis were reviewed. RESULTS:Five women and 4 men were identified. All patients were symptomatic at diagnosis. Tumor resection was complete in 8 cases. In 3 patients, there was a malignant tumor. Two of them had received chemo-radiotherapy. The others showed good clinical progress with a mean of 35 months. CONCLUSION:Neurogenic tumors in adults are usually discovered incidentally. When the malignant forms predominate or in the presence of large tumor, the symptoms can be quite marked. In all cases the treatment based on a complete surgical resection remains the only guarantee of a good prognosis.
