摘要：
Mediastinal mass is not an unusual entity. It occurs mostly due to lymphoma, thymoma, germ cell tumours, granulomatous diseases, and so on. Tuberculosis is an uncommon cause of mediastinal mass. It is rarely suspected when it is presented in such an unusual way. We report here a case of a 35-year-old male who presented with mediastinal mass, which was later confirmed as a case of tuberculosis on histopathological examination. He was successfully treated with anti-tubercular drugs.
