  Abstract

We report the case of a 22-year-old gentleman with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who presented with a 3-week history of non-specific symptoms and an ejection systolic murmur. Urgent transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated a large anterior mediastinal mass compressing the right ventricular outflow tract that was confirmed on subsequent computerised tomography.

Keywords: Mediastinal mass; Lymphoma; Right ventricular outflow tract; Echocardiography
