Abstract

We report the case of a 61-year-old female, who presented with a history of chronic fatigue, dyspnea on exertion, a widened mediastinum with tracheal deviation on chest X-ray, and a neck mass. After a diagnostic workup, the patient was found to have a paratracheal mass extending into the chest in addition to a 6.5 cm ascending aortic aneurysm with aortic insufficiency, and a 70% stenosis of the right coronary artery. She underwent successful resection of a substernal goiter via a neck incision facilitated by a previously performed sternotomy for a concomitant ascending aortic root replacement and a bypass utilizing the RIMA to the distal RCA.
