Abstract

Figure 1: (A) Three-dimensional magnetic resonance image (MRI) of the thoracic duct and mediastinal cyst. MRI visualized the thoracic duct, revealing the continuity of the duct with the cystic mass in the mediastinum. The arrows indicate the thoracic duct. The square arrow indicates the cystic mass in the mediastinum. The arrowhead indicates the descending aorta. (B) Combined multidetector-row CT (MDCT) and MRI showed that the cystic mass was located between the descending aorta, left bronchus and oesophagus and visualized the course of the thoracic duct well. T: trachea; E: oesophagus. (C) Intraoperative thoracoscopic view of the mediastinal cyst. The arrow indicates the cystic mass in the mediastinum, and the double arrows indicate the thoracic duct. L: right lung; V: vertebra. (D) The resected thoracic duct cyst.
