  • Title: Case report: mobile fatty globules in benign cystic teratoma of the mediastinum.
    Author: Hession PR, Simpson W.
    Journal: Br J Radiol; 1996 Feb; 69(818):186-8. PubMed ID: 8785650.
    Abstract:
    Benign cystic teratoma is a well recognized cause of an anterior mediastinal mass. The presence of fat, found in approximately half the cases, suggests the diagnosis. We report a new feature, which consists of components of the tumour drifting upwards (anteriorly) during the course of a computed tomography examination. The appearance is compared with a popular light fitting.
