22 yrs old female presented with dry cough dyspnea since last one month, not asso with fever. spo2 92%, HR 120/min. not possible further evaluation due to financial constraints. (adv HRCT thorax ) plz comment on cxray, and possible DDs. ( I shall update CT thorax if done)
Thanks everyone for your comments. CT thorax repot is updated. Scan films could not get available. Possibly lymphoma. Less likely germ cell tumor,thymoma.
X -ray chest suggest large size hydatid cysts. Needs further investigations and evaluation to conclude diagnosis and line of treatment. Multivitamins and antioxidants orally. Maintain nutrition hydration and hygiene. Regular monitoring and periodical evaluation required. Reassurance and councelling required.

Well defined large mediastinal or pulmonary masses outpouching bilaterally... Differentials in a young patient would include congenital cysts like neuroenteric, lymphomas, thymoma, parasitic cysts The picture will be clearer with cect chest
Most likely mass originating from chest wall . See 2nd, 3rd and 4th anterior ribs somewhat abnormal indicating huge mass originating from chest wall. Most likely Ewing sarcoma or Askin tumor. Advise CECT
It is huge mass urgent hrct with contrast pet scan at municipal centre Rajiv Gandhi or Pradhan mantri yojna is their where free facility of diagnosis
PULMONARY HYDATID. CYSTS ADVISABLE... HRCT.... SCANNING.. THORAX

On examination, the swelling is soft, oval, measuring 18*15 cm, on the lot side of the neck, extending to the mediastinum, causing tracheal shift to the right. No axillary or inguinal lymph node enlargement. No hepatosplenomegaly. All blood investigations done 3 months ago were done and showed nothing abnormal.
