Bilateral adjacent neurogenic tumors of the mediastinum were excised in a 20-year-old man through a single left thoracotomy. The presence of bilateral lesions was indicated by the discrepancy between excised tumor and the mass on x-ray examination. Two distinct histologic patterns resulted in one mass representing a ganglioneuroma, and the second, a neurofibroma.
