  1. Hello ,
    The mediastinum on the lateral seemed enlarged to me. Could it be or is ot just me ?

  2. Hi Alison, Thank you for another interesting case.
    I would like to ask a question if you get a chance: please:
    – is there dilation of the left main bronchi ias it does not taper down as the right one?
    -Why is there increased left airways wall opacity? Is that artefact?
    – The thoracic lymphnode does not seem to b enlarged on the xrays?What would be other differental diagnosis except lymphoma? Is it really definite diagnosis with the findigs discribed above?
    – Would right side heart failure be possible with findings? Thank You
    Kind regards
    Anna
