A lady in her seventies with a history of breast cancer and left mastectomy presented in summer 2000 with weight loss, hepatosplenomegaly and abnormal liver functions.
Her chest x ray at that time revealed enlargement of the azygous node and evidence of left mastectomy, in addition to a well known calcified opacity in the left lower lobe (fig 1A). A CT scan confirmed mediastinal lymphadenopathy (fig 1B) and hepatosplenomegaly (fig 1C).
Figure 1 A. Chest x ray showing left mastectomy, azygos node and calcified opacity in left lower lobe. B. CT showing mediastinal lymphadenopathy. C. CT showing hepatosplenomegaly.
