"Primary" Undifferentiated Carcinoma in the Mediastinum

Report of Two Cases with Angiocardiographic and Pathologic Findings

NATHANIEL FINBY M.D.1 and ISRAEL STEINBERG M.D., F.C.C.P.1

1 The Department of Radiology of the New York Hospital—Cornell Medical Center.

Two cases of "primary" undifferentiated carcinoma in the mediastinum are reported. The diagnosis could only be established after complete autopsy. Attention is called to the rapid fulminating course which was not altered by surgery or radiation therapy. Roentgenography demonstrated the fulminating character of the lesion while angiocardiography in one instance predicted the malignant invasion of the cardiovascular structures by the tumor.
