dc.description.abstractA 17 year old female patient was admitted to the emergency service with complaints of cough, asthma, and cyanosis in the left hand. Expanding in the mediastinum, a rightward deviation of the trachea was specified in the posterior-anterior lung x-ray. In her thoracic computerised tomography, soft tissue density, rightward deviation of trachea, narrowing inwards from outside with the left major bronchus was observed and there were common lymph nodules on the upper section of the left trachea. These lymph nodes applied pressure on major vascular structures leading to the left arm. Primarily lymphoma was considered because she was a young patient. Diagnosis-based left axial and left nodule excision was carried out. Histopathologically, a non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) was diagnosed. The patient was given chemotherapy. The cyanosis in the hand was healed after the mass decreased, thus decreasing pressure on vascular structures. Lymphoma, which is one of the mediastinal masses, is also considered with congenital cardiac illnesses such as pulmonary hypertension, improved Patent Ductus Arteriosis Eisenmenger Syndrome in young patients admitted to the emergency service with atypical complaints such as cyanosis in the left hand.en_US
