Dr. Jhanwar clarified that a mediastinal tumor is a cluster of cells. Sometimes it can be pretty fatal (cancerous). Mediastinal tumors form in the area of the chest that separates the lungs. This area, called the mediastinum, is surrounded by the sternum in front, the spine in the back, and the lungs on each side. The mediastinum contains the heart, aorta, esophagus, thymus, trachea, lymph nodes, and nerves. In general, mediastinal tumors are rare. The child is lovely now. The relatives thanked the chairman Rahul Agarwal, the doctors, and all the staff.
