초록

Mediatinal lipomatosis is a common benign cause of mediastinal widening. While it may be associated with exogenous obesity, steroid ingestion or Cushing syndrome, these factor are often not present. Evaluation of the mediastinum by CT should be the initial diagnostic study in the work-up of patients with abnormalities of the mediastinal contour. We report a case of extensive anterior mediastinal lipomatosis induced by steroids, with brief review of the literatures.
