    Abstract:
    Cholesterol granuloma is a foreign-body giant cell reaction that can occur in response to the presence of cholesterol crystals. They are usually found in the middle ear, paranasal sinuses or mastoid process due to chronic inflammation. Presentation in the prevascular mediastinum is a rare finding. We describe a case of a cholesterol granuloma located in the prevascular mediastinum in a symptomatic 57-year-old male patient.
