Surgical therapy for hemangioma of the azygos vein arch under thoracoscopy: A case report

Figure 1 Tumor imaging by chest computed tomography. A: Chest computed tomography showed a soft-tissue mass in the right posterior mediastinum; the mass was approximately 4.2 cm × 3.7 cm × 2.6 cm in size and showed unclear boundaries with the esophagus and compression of the trachea; B: Enhanced scanning showed that the azygos vein arch widened, the contrast agent remained in the azygos vein arch, the tumor exhibited delayed enhancement, and the internal density was uneven (blue arrow). In the venous phase, the tumor was connected to the superior vena cava, and the degree of enhancement was the same as that of the superior vena cava. The boundary between the tumor and the esophagus was clear. Note the azygos vein valve (orange arrow). The esophagus was compressed by the azygos vein aneurysm (yellow arrow).
