Abstract

A case of mediastinal teratoma diagnosed by transbronchial lung biopsy is reported. A 21-year-old female was introduced to our hospital, complaining cough and white discharge. Chest X-ray demonstrated an abnormal shadow in the left hilum and upper lobe. Computed tomography depicted a tumorous mass in the anterior mediastinum. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy revealed obstruction of the left B^3c which was filled with white keratinous material. The diagnosis of teratoma was made by a white hair obtained from transbronchial lung biopsy of the left S^3c. The resected specimen confirmed the diagnosis of teratoma.
