Welcome - Face - EXPRESSION DE L'AGE
This multi-active skincare product targets first wrinkles and fine lines all over the face (especially on the forehead, eyes and lip contour areas). Inspired by our massage techniques, this Smoothing roll'on³ maximises the smoothing properties of the chosen plant active ingredients, thanks to the massaging and toning cold effect of the three metallic beads. It acts on the skin to help:
- precisely smooth, fill in and plump up first
expression lines (Volumising Hyaluronic Acid, Wheat Protein Microspheres),
- encourage the micro-circulation and smooth facial micro-tensions (Hibiscus Extract, Trio of metallic beads),
- provide lasting hydration for these sensitive areas (Wild Pansy Extract, Cherry Tree Buds). Neroli Essential Oil, with recognised softening properties, plays the role of a powerful vector for the other active ingredients, ensuring reinforced effectiveness.
Result: First wrinkles appear visibly relaxed, smoothed and filled in. The skin is relieved and freshness is maintained. The features look rested.

Morning and evening after the AROMESSENCE™ Serum tailored to your skin type, apply to first expression lines in light circular movements: press the tube and simultaneously glide the beads over the skin. Finish the application by massaging with the fingertips (check the professional massage techniques in the leaflet).

Updates to Python clientDavid Arthur 2012-09-22, 18:55
I made some improvements to the Python client. I implemented fetch, multi-fetch, multi-produce, and offset requests; I also documented each request/response with the wire format. I've committed to my Kafka branch on GitHub. I have only briefly tested things.
https://github.com/mumrah/kafka/tree/trunk/clients/python It's mostly low-level protocol stuff. I'm sure there is room for some more helper methods and high-level API. Feedback is welcome! -David |

Pregnancy and Miscarriage
Can a Miscarriage Be Prevented?
Usually a miscarriage cannot be prevented and often occurs because the pregnancy is not normal. If a specific problem is identified with testing, then treatment options may be available.
Sometimes, treatment of a mother's illness can improve the chances for a successful pregnancy.

This Clone Trooper action figure was released in a battlepack together with a Gelagrub creature during The Legacy Collection in November 2009. This Clone Trooper, who served in the Star Crops under Commander Bly, was very briefly seen in Revenge Of The Sith, in the background during the execution of Order 66 on the planet Felucia.
The figure is ultra articulated, with the only swivel joints being the wrists. Even the legs are ball-jointed, this way he's able to fit on top of the Gelagrub creature. The trooper has a decent stance and with a little bit of patience you should be able to get him to stand safely without additional support from a stand. Both blasters are a good fit for his hands, and they also fit nicely into both holsters. The shoulder armor is removable, but he looks a bit better with it than without it. The trouble is though that if you keep the shoulder armor on the figure, the helmet gets pushed up a little bit which results in the clone's chin looking out underneath it. If you remove the shoulder armor, the helmet is a perfect match and covers the entire head. The light brown soft goods skirt is not removable, but looks good and makes this figure different enough from previous Star Corps clones. The belt is also permanently attached to the figure.
The paint application on this Clone Trooper is nicely done and there are some scuffs here and there, mainly on the arms and the front stripe of the armor. Overall, this super articulated clone trooper figure is well done, and it's different enough to stand out in your felucia diorama amongst all the other clone trooper figures. The only negative is that the Clone's chin is showing underneath when the shoulder armor is kept on, but if you are ok with that, chances are you'll like this figure.

Monday - Saturday 10am - 6pm
Neighborhoods: Downtown, Central San Mateo
Site for Sore Eyes continues to provide our customers with the best quality eye care service in San Mateo. Our experienced team of optometrists & sales staff go above and beyond to provide you with designer eyewear, professional eye exams, and the best possible experience when you visit our store. At Site for Sore Eyes in San Mateo, all the best eyewear products are available to you - whether new designer frames, prescription sunglasses, contact lenses or eye exams, the best in quality can be found at Site for Sore Eyes. We accept most vision care insurance plans & AARP. Call today to schedule a appointment walk-ins are welcome. Specials available now include: free cleaning and adjustments for glasses, contact lenses complete training & gift certificates. Ask about our AAA discount.
The staff there was very friendly and helpful. They really knew what they were doing and talking about. The frame selection was large and I got it in a decent amount of time. Took the kids too, and was fitted for contact lenses. It was apparent that Dr. Woo really cared about my family and their needs. Would definitely recommend her to my family and friends!
Accommodating – I recently engaged in a business relationship with Mark, the owner of Site for Sore Eyes. I found him to be forward-thinking, passionate and driven to provide the best customer service that he can offer clients. In an era where customer service is often constricted by outside factors, Mark is always ready and willing to present solutions to problems that are financially beneficial to the client without sacrificing product and service quality. This is a difficult task to achieve, especially in a tough retail climate but he exhausts all options to help his customers while other retailers I have worked with are not as accommodating.
Love their service – The couple who runs/owns this store are really hard working and patient. True, they are not a corporate machine, but that's ok with me. The glasses are much more affordable than my old optometrist and the doctor is very friendly and helpful... Personally, I will stick with them because I love their service. Julia is so very patient and helpful and Dr. Woo really communicates with you to be sure she fulfills your needs.
Great service! – I'm buying my 2nd pair of glasses from them in the last 2 yrs and I really like that it's the same staff as I dealt with before. They remembered me and what I liked...helped me choose a great 2nd pair quickly. To me, that's GREAT service!
I had an excellent experience. Dr. Shah was very professional and conscientious. The staff was friendly and helpful. This is the most cost-effective eye exam I've ever had.
Very good experience – I ordered a pair of glasses from this place and the whole experience was very good. The staff was knowledgeable and were very helpful in picking out the frame.
Workers knowledgeable – I just had a pair of glasses done here and the service was great. Glasses in one hour as promised. There were alot of places in San Mateo that I went to, and the workers here seemed a little bit more knowledgeable.
huge selection – I've been buying my glasses and contacts at this Site For Sore Eyes location for a few years now. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly; there's always some sort of offer or special going on, so I would say the prices are reasonable. During my last visit Julia helped me choose my new glasses, she was super patient as I tried on every pair of glasses in the store :) Finally settled on a pair that I love!

For the 4th annual Joe's Garage/Modified Mustangs & Fords cruise, in support of Toronto Sick Kids Hospital, we'll be doing things a little differently than in years past, by extending the cruise. We'll be starting out at DaSilva Racing, 960 Brock Road, Pickering, Ontario at 8.00 am on Sunday, October 12, 2008.
Once everybody has gathered at the meeting point, we will cruise along to Wilson Park in Lindsay, Ontario close by Polito Ford-Lincoln. After a brief stop, the cruise will continue up to beautiful Muskoka, the heart of Ontario's cottage country, stopping in Huntsville before making the return leg back to Toronto. The total drive will be long from start to finish, but there are a number of Sunoco stations serving Ultra 94 fuel on the way up and back. A map will be provided and the locations of these gas stations will be shown on the map with distances to them from the start. The route that has been chosen for this year's cruise is highly scenic, with large swooping corners and areas that have lakes on either side of the road. We also realize that some of you may be pressed for time and if you aren't able to complete the w hole cruise, there are a number of locations where you can exit the cruise earlier and head home. Last year's cruise drew over 100 cars, and we hope this one will be even bigger and brighter. See you at Da Silva's 8.00 am, Sunday October 12 don't miss it.
The RouteJoe Da Silva and Darcy Shepard have put a lot of time and effort into this year's cruise. Below Darcy, explains the itinerary:

There will be a one-hour stop in Minden where there is a Tim Horton's coffee shop.When you arrive in Minden parking is limited in the Tim's parking lot, so park in Mark's Restaurant across the street and the Old Owl Restaurant beside the Tim Horton's.We will leave Minden @ 1:30 pm Sharp.
We will then arrive in Huntsville. The location you'll be looking for is the Smart Center. This location is easy to find as it is right off HWY 60.

Awnings are Cool when Things get Hot
1. Buying an awning isn't an expense - it's a savings. Window awnings are rated as "energy savers" by the U.S. Department of Energy. According to the DOE, awnings can reduce a home's solar heat gain in summer by up to 65% on south-facing windows and 77% on west-facing windows. To save on summer AC, put up an awning.
2. Window awnings are both energy savers and window decorators, adding color and curb appeal while reducing utility costs. When choosing a window awning size, keep the compass in mind. The U.S. DOE recommends small, horizontal awnings for south windows. Downward-extending large awnings are better for the low-angle sunlight of east and west windows.
3. It's going to be a beautifully sunny day. Oops, take that back. Retractable awnings are best for those days when the sun plays peekaboo with the clouds. A retractable awning also lets you suit the sun to your patio activities: up for tanning, down for shady relaxing.
4. Fixed awnings, aka stationary awnings, are a wise investment for windows where daily sunlight can cause fading of furniture, carpet, and interior decor. They're also useful as door awnings, where they protect your entryway - and entrants - from snow, ice, rain, and sun.
5. Sunlight isn't the only nemesis that's defeated by the high-tech convenience of motorized awnings. A motorized awning with a remote or an indoor or outdoor switch would keep you dry from start to finish of rainy-day patio BBQing. Some models even feature weather sensors to help protect your house and maximize your energy savings when you're not around.
6. Big patios need big shade, and no shade is bigger than a freestanding awning. Freestanding awnings are the sun-blocking solution for areas where permanent shade installation isn't feasible. They're also perfect for outdoor entertaining, covering decks, picnic tables, BBQ stations, poolsides, bistro sets, and much more.
7. One of the lifestyle advantages of awnings is their ability to transform patios into stylish outdoor rooms. Our fabric awnings offer a wide range of designer colors and styles to match with your outdoor furniture. A conversation set paired with an awning and outdoor room divider - now that's a posh patio.
8. Today's fabric awnings are more durable than ever, offering water-repelling, UV-blocking, fade-free performance. Regular awning maintenance is important, however, and will help prevent sagging and water pooling. Simply sweep your awning clear of debris whenever visible, and wash dirty areas with mild soap and lukewarm water.

Are There Any Free Visual Novel Game Makers?
There are a few visual novel game engines that are free!
Renpy is one of the most popular visual novel engines. It is cross platform and open source (PC, MAC, and Linux) and has many features. There is also a lot of support available, but the script is very picky, and can be frustrating if you are a beginner, or not used to dealing with picky formatting in scripts.
There is also the Novelty Engine which is much better for non-programmers. The interface is point and click and is more UI friendly. There is a scripting system available for advanced users. It is Windows-based and is not cross platform, but MAC users can probably play its games with a virtual machine.

No other food has higher amounts of beneficial minerals, essential amino acids and vitamins than organic food. Take organic milk – according to research carried out by scientists in Britain and across Europe, organic milk has nearly 70% more essential fatty acid omega-3 than its non-organic equivalent. Research comparing the nutrient contents of organic and non-organic fruit and vegetables reveals a strong trend toward higher levels in organic produce. Of 27 valid comparisons of the mineral and vitamin C contents of organic and non-organic crops, 14 showed significantly higher levels in organic produce while just one favoured non-organic.

Grilled Berries and Pound Cake with Bourbon-Butterscotch Sauce
Photo: Luca Trovato; Styling: Dani Fisher
Frozen, packaged pound cake works well here; the dense texture cuts evenly and doesn't crumble. Use homemade or deli pound cake if desired, but steer clear of varieties with nuts and chocolate chips, which make skewering tricky.
Yield: Makes 1 dozen

Salewa Firetail GTX
4-star: 0
3-star: 0
2-star: 0
1-star: 0
This is a highly durable, functional, comfortable…
Materials: kevlar, gore-tex ect.
Use: heavy daily outdoor work use
Break-in Period: 2 weeks
Price Paid: $120
This is a highly durable, functional, comfortable shoe. I burn through most types of gear quickly, especially footwear. It isn't unusual for me to break down a new pair of Gore-tex shoes in a matter of weeks. I have had equivalent versions of North Face and Asolo shoes wear out in less then 4 months. This shoe is going on 8 months for me with heavy daily use and it is just beginning to show signs of wear.
I don't use this show as an approach shoe but rather a daily work shoe. I work outside in many conditions in all parts of the country.
My only complaint is that the "waterproof" aspect of this show isn't perfect, but is on par with competing brands/models.
Overall, I will buy another pair, great product for the money.
Where to Buy
Retailers' Descriptions
Here's what other sites are saying:
Whether it is for a walk around the neighborhood or for a tough hike up a mountain, these shoes have got you covered! The Men's Firetail GTX by Salewa are perfect for all of your outdoor adventures. Extended lacing and a multi-fit footbed allow for a truly customized fit. PRODUCT FEATURES Salewa offers a footbed that allows an individual adjustment of the fit The connection of the Salewa 'Y' to the 3D lacing spreads the lacing force onto the whole foot and controls the movement of the heel The extended technical lacing towards the front of the shoe allows personal adjustment for comfort and fit The innovative sole construction combining the lightness and the excellent efficiency of EVA with the cushioning and durability of the PUR heel shock absorber
- Appalachian Outdoors refers to the men's version
Description of Salewa Firetail GTX ShoesWhile wearing the Salewa Firetail GTX Shoes one must question their own definition of divinity. Theyre as strong as an Ox and as light as a feather. Outfitted with a GORE-TEX Comfort Lining and VIBRAM Approach outsole the Firetail GTX makes great use of its surroundings, exploiting the rugged terrain it calls home. Featureslightbreathablewaterprooflow cuffLINING Microfiber, Armoured Mesh, AramidicRubber 360 RandLINING GORE-TEX Extended ComfortOUTSOLE Vibram Approach
- US Outdoor Store refers to the men's version
The Men's Firetail GTX from Salewa gives extended lacing and multi-fit footbed that allows for a true customized fit. The EVA midsole with PU Shock Absorber, GORE-TEX, sticky vibram outsole, climbing rubber rand and a special Aramidic protection on the midsole make it state of the art. This revolutionary generation of approach footwear creates a link between the comfort and lightness of trail runners with the technical features of an alpine approach shoe.
- CampSaver.com refers to the men's version
The Salewa Mens Firetail GTX Hiking Shoe represents an evolutionary step forward, the missing link between a technical approach shoe and a lightweight trail runner. Specially-designed Vibram outsoles, climbing lacing, protective rands, and a customizable fit enable the state-of-the-art Firetail to handle approaches and descents on the most technical trails with ease and, thanks to the Gore-Tex insert, in any weather.

May 1, 2013 - LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, these bags! Ordered one set. Gave one to an aunt, one yesterday to my sister and I'll be keeping one. The girls loved them. Do believe I see more of these in my future. When you come across something this practical and attractive (not to mention feeding some deserving furry friends), it's a win-win situation!
April 4, 2013 - love x 3~
April 4, 2013 - I love these bags! They can hold so much and are very easy to carry. I use them when I go to the pool and it nicely holds my wet bathing suit and towel and then I can easily wash the, all when I get home. Highly recommend! I want to buy more :-)
April 4, 2013 - Love the bags, gave one to someone else as a little gift. They are very handy, just to pack away when needed.

You will not believe this!! It is similar to the punchbowl cake, but is with apple pie filling. I make it to take to church luncheons (or somewhere there will be A LOT of people). I usually make 2 large bowls, because I don't have just one large enough to make it in. That way you can take one, keep one. {Can split it at the "repeat layers" but with topping on each} Yield: 42 servings (3/4 cup each).

oh and btw, i am going to the show at the yost tonight. my husband was totally ok babysitting.
oh and btw, i am going to the show at the yost tonight. my husband was totally ok babysitting.
man all these oc venues are taking me back.
I like chain reaction (minus the few times I got thrown into the side split wall that splits the stage from the entrance. Plenty of hardcore shows in there where the "no stage diving" rule went out the door (also the only venue I've seen stretch armstrong live at). It was fun to park in front of the furniture store across street, try out a couch, then go in to a show.
my first experience at the detroit bar was a buddy asking me to meet for a drink, walking in, and seeing ignite setting up.
i like the glass house. I tend to like venues that are more one open room then those with levels or partitions. It just always seemed to be a far drive from wherever I lived. the galaxy wasn't too bad, it's just bigger than normal (not saying much). the angry samoans seemed to play there a lot. I heard it closed, but no idea if or when.
Just a quick word to you guys about Ghost, THEY DELIVER LIVE!!!
If you missed them this time around be sure to get tickets for the LA date of the Opeth/Mastodon Tour they are on (Sarf) haha.
ya, i hated that partition at chain reaction. sometimes there'd be girls and bitch ass dudes sitting on it blocking my view, but most of the time, i could get on the other side and be ok. my whole college experience and my 20s played out in there though and like you say, the kinds of shows... i used to see alkaline trio there before they moved onto house of blues and palladium sized shows and matt skiba was just inches away from me, i could have touched him and i wish i had... i think the last show i was at was in '08 to see leatherface (rare in and of itself since they don't come over from the UK often!).
the yost was ok. they tweeted me their set time when i asked. win. the lady at the box office kept my ticket. boo. it's a good size and for an acoustic show, the sound was great. it's also tiered so if you are in the back, you can still see over the people in front. it's kind of like the wiltern, but not as nice.
the show was awesome. i only caught matt pryor, anthony raneri and dustin kensrue. i never got into the get up kids and don't think i ever will. i always liked a couple bayside songs and i think i will give their music more listens because i really like anthony's voice. this was probably the best solo show i've seen dustin do. i didn't buy his solo album after going to the record release show in '07 (at chain reaction!) because i wasn't as into it as i was into thrice, but man, his confidence in his solo work has grown since then and there's a lot of power in his voice, matching the range you get when you listen to his work in thrice. he covered songs by thrice, cold war kids, tom waits and bruce springsteen. wow.
i know that one and this one, which is older and from when i initially heard their stuff:
i'm not familiar enough with their albums to recommend any, but i'll look into it and then let you know if there are any that are worthwhile. the good thing about this show is it finally got me motivated to check one of the other bands on the bill out. ha.
here's a review, btw:

This made me laugh more than it should have. I've had that inclination with Brian Fallon while watching Gaslight Anthem.
As for Bayside, I listen to them occasionally. "The Walking Wounded" is their best album IMO and the song you posted is from that album. I think they have 5 full length albums in total.

i like his voice, too. might have to pick up "elsie". i just haven't really had a chance to listen to any of it yet.

A lot of people were excited about the new Straight Talk iPhone plans available Walmart earlier this month. The hallmark of those plans was the claimed unlimited data allotment but as it turns out the plan actually has a 2 GB cap before users are throttled.
Facebook has officially launched free voice calling for iPhone users in the United States. The feature is available in the Facebook Messenger app and you apparently don't even have to update the app to get access to the feature.
If you're a fan of iPhone gaming, a new game called Domo the Journey will be coming to the iPhone next month. The game will see Domo-Kun fighting through 25 levels to save his best friend from danger.

Dr. Babagbemi is a Resident in the Department of Radiology, Brigham and Women's Hospital; Dr. Hunsaker is an Assistant Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School and a Radiologist at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA.
The mediastinum is defined as the area bounded by the two lungs laterally, the diaphragm inferiorly, the thoracic inlet superiorly, the sternum anteriorly, and the vertebral column posteriorly. It is divided primarily into anterior, middle, and posterior compartments by the most commonly used classification scheme. 1 The anterior compartment (pre-vascular space) includes all structures posterior to the sternum and anterior to the pericardium, aorta, and brachiocephalic vessels. This area includes lymph nodes, internal mammary vessels, the thymus, and fat. The middle mediastinum is largely a vascular compartment and includes the pericardium and its contents, the ascending and transverse aortas, the superior vena cava (SVC), the brachiocephalic vessels, the trachea, the phrenic nerve, the upper portion of the vagus, and the lymph nodes. The posterior compartment (post-vascular space) is bounded anteriorly by the pericardium and contains lymph nodes, vertebral bodies, and the contents of spinal canal. This space also includes the esophagus, the azygos and hemiazygos veins, the descending aorta, and the intercostal and autonomic nerves. The assessment of masses relies heavily, but not exclusively, on the ability to define an "anatomic" location for lesions. This review will focus on the nonvascular entities that commonly present on radiologic imaging. Primary tumors of the mediastinum are rare, comprising about 3% of chest tumors. 2-5 The following discussion addresses the most common lesions, rather than an exhaustive cataloguing of the wide variety of conditions that may present as mediastinal masses.
Workup of mediastinal masses includes chest radiographs (CXR), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). CT is better than a CXR in characterizing mediastinal masses as to fat, fluid, or calcium content, as well as localizing origin and extent of lesions and identifying associated abnormalities. 6 The primary role of MR in the evaluation of the mediastinum is problem solving, as it shows some superiority in characterizing various tissues. T2- and T1-weighted fat-saturation sequences are most useful for this purpose. 7
More than 35,000 cases of lymphoma are diagnosed annually. Both Hodgkin's disease (HD) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) affect the mediastinum, but HD represents 25% to 30% of all cases of lymphoma and is the most common entity to present as an intrathoracic lesion. 8 The age distribution of HD is bimodal with peak incidence at early adulthood and after age 50. 9 At the time of presentation, 85% of patients have chest involvement, 10 and 90% of patients have lymph node enlargement in the mediastinum, but only 25% of all cases of disease is limited to the chest. 10 Of the HD subtypes, the nodular sclerosing type most commonly affects the anterior mediastinum. 11 Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is histopathologically distinct from HD, with intrathoracic involvement in 40% of patients at presentation. Only 10% have disease limited to the chest. 10 Of the NHL subtypes, the large B-cell lymphoma and the lymphoblastic lymphoma most frequently affect the anterior mediastinum. 12-14
Lymphoma may present as nodal enlargement seen as singularly enlarged nodes or as a conglomerate mass of nodes. On CT, the mass may be homogeneous or heterogeneous depending on the presence of calcification, hemorrhage, necrosis, or cystic components 15-17 (figure 1). On MR, lymphoma appears as homogenous low-signal on T1-weighted images and as homogenous high-signal or intermixed areas of low and high intensity on T2-weighted images. 18
Thymoma and other thymic neoplasms
Thymomas are the most common primary tumor type in the anterior mediastinum. 19-21 There appears to be no sex predilection for thymomas, but most cases occur in patients who are older than 20 years of age. 22 There is a common association with myasthenia gravis (MG). Up to 50% of patients with thymoma have MG, but only 10% to 15% of patients with MG have thymomas, 23 and some patients have been found to have attenuation of symptoms following resection of the thymoma. 21 Half of patients with thymomas are asymptomatic.
Other parathymic manifestations associated with thymoma include a pure red-cell aplasia and hypogammaglobulinemia. Although most thymomas are benign and contained by fibrous capsule, a third of thymomas invade through their capsule even though they remain cytologically benign. 21,24 These are termed invasive thymomas. There can be transdiaphragmatic extension, vascular invasion, or mediastinal fat invasion by these lesions and they may even involve the pleural surface mimicking a malignant mesothelioma. 25 Approximately 30% to 35% of thymomas are malignant.
On CT, thymomas may demonstrate homogenous or heterogeneous attenuation depending on presence of hemorrhage, necrosis, or cystic components 26 but are usually more solid in appearance than the normal thymus. 22 They can appear as round, oval, or lobulated masses (figure 2). Calcification is seen in as many as 25% of cases and is usually coarse or irregular (figure 3). On MRI, thymomas can have intermediate- to high-signal intensity on T1-weighted images and high signal on T2-weighted images (figure 4). Contrast administration may help define vascular invasion; however, MRI does not offer a significant advantage over CT in the evaluation of thymomas. 22
Cytologically malignant thymic neoplasms are termed thymic carcinoma and are distinctly separate from invasive thymoma. Although radiographically similar in their aggressive breaching of boundaries, the invasive thymoma does not demonstrate the cellular atypia of a carcinoma. The most common histologic subtypes of malignant thymic tumors are squamous cell and lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma. 27,28
Other thymic masses in the mediastinum include thymic cysts (figure 5), which may be congenital (due to a patent thymopharyngeal duct) or acquired due either to post inflammatory conditions or to association with a neoplasm. 29-31 Thymolipomas are soft encapsulated masses containing mature adipose, thymic epithelial cells, and lymphoid tissue. 20
Substernal goiter accounts for 10% of all mediastinal masses. Approximately 75% of goiters extend into the anterior mediastinum while 20% to 25% involve the posterior mediastinum. 32 CT shows these lesions to be contiguous with the thyroid in the neck, and demonstrates calcification and areas of cystic change 33,34 (figure 6). Precontrast attenuation value may be high due to the presence of iodine, 33,34 and there may be enhancement with intravenous contrast. 35
Germ-cell neoplasms
The mediastinum serves as the most common site of extragonadal involvement of germ-cell tumors in adult in the third decade. 36 Neoplasms in this category include benign and malignant teratomas, seminomas, and non-seminomatous malignant germ-cell tumors (such as endodermal sinus tumors, embryonal carcinomas, mixed germ-cell tumors, and choriocarcinomas). Of these, teratomas are the most common neoplasms to present in the mediastinum. 37,38 The characteristic pathologic and radiographic feature of a teratoma is the presence of one or more components from the three embryonic germ-cell layers, hair, calcium, or fat.
Plain radiography usually reveals a large, well-circumscribed mass causing displacement of adjacent structures. Calcification is seen in up to 80% of these lesions. 39 On CT, a benign teratoma is usually cystic and may have fat up to 90% of the time whereas a malignant teratoma is usually more solid and contains fat only 40% of the time 39 (figure 7). Fat-fluid levels, considered highly specific for the diagnosis of mature mediastinal teratoma, are uncommon 40 (figure 8). CT findings of heterogeneity of the internal components of the mass and changes in the adjacent lung parenchyma, pleura, or pericardium may indicate tumor rupture. 41
Seminomas are most common primary malignant tumor of the mediastinum and are often metastatic. 42,43 They are associated with low levels of beta HCG in contrast to the non-seminomatous tumors that are associated with higher levels of beta HCG. 44 They are usually large and lobular on CT and relatively homogenous in their attenuation. 33 The non-seminomatous tumors are highly aggressive invasive tumors that are not usually resectable because of their local invasiveness and metastatic tendencies. 45,46 On CT, they are usually large, lobulated, heterogeneous masses with areas of hemorrhage and necrosis. 47
Foregut cysts
These are congenital malformations of the pulmonary and gastrointestinal tracts caused by abnormal budding of the bronchopulmonary foregut. These anomalies comprise 10% to 15% of primary mediastinal lesions. Bronchogenic cysts account for 54% to 63% of such anomalies. 19,48 The cyst wall is usually lined by pseudostratified epithelium and they contain mucoid or serous material, hemorrhage, or pus. 49,50 They typically present as masses in the paraesophageal and tracheobronchial axis and may compress adjacent structures. 51 These cysts do not usually communicate with the airway. On CT, these lesions display water attenuation given their mostly fluid content (figures 9 and 10). On MR, they demonstrate correspondingly high T2 signal and possibly high T1 signal when high in proteinaceous material. 52,53
Lymph-node masses are other causes of middle mediastinal masses and include those from sarcoidosis, Castleman's disease, bronchogenic carcinoma, and infectious causes such as tuberculosis.
Neurogenic tumors
Ninety percent of neurogenic tumors present as posterior mediastinal masses and represent 75% of posterior mediastinal masses. 54,55 These tumors commonly arise either from peripheral nerves, or sympathetic or parasympathetic ganglia.
Schwannomas and neurofibromas are the most common of the posterior mediastinal masses and arise from peripheral nerves. 56 They are benign masses that have similar appearances on CXR manifesting as lobulated paraspinal masses 19,56 (figures 11 and 12). They may deform the adjacent bony structures, 57 and characteristically grow into the spinal canal in a "dumbbell" or "hourglass" form. 57 A plexiform neurofibroma is a subtype of neurofibroma that affects an entire nerve plexus. 57 Multiple tumors of neural origin or a single plexiform tumor is considered pathognomonic for neurofibromatosis. 58 On CT, schwannomas and neurofibromas, in addition to the characteristics described above, may enhance homogeneously, peripherally, or heterogeneously and may contain areas of low density corresponding to myelin, cystic change, or hemorrhage. 59-61 MR is necessary in all cases of suspected neurogenic tumors in the mediastinum so intraspinal extension may be excluded. 62
Malignant tumors of nerve sheath origin are the malignant equivalents of the schwannoma and neurofibroma. They do not, however, arise from preexisting schwannomas but may arise from a plexiform neurofibroma. Half of these malignant tumors occur in patients with neurofibromatosis.
Sympathetic ganglia tumors include ganglioneuroblastomas, ganglioneuromas, and neuroblastomas. These usually appear as broad-based, oblong masses adjacent to the spine. 59
Lateral thoracic meningoceles
Lateral thoracic meningoceles are rare posterior mediastinal lesions that form as a result of herniation of the meninges through the intervertebral foramen. They are most common in patients with neurofibromatosis and are the most common cause of a posterior mediastinal mass in these patients. 57,62 They radiologically manifest as a well-defined paraspinal mass and may be associated with bony erosion, widening of the neural foramina, and possibly kyphoscoliosis. 58 MR can determine the presence of herniation of the subarachnoid space and signal intensity consistent with CSF 58 (figure 13).
Esophageal lesions
Lesions within the mid- and distal esophagus can present as a posterior mediastinal mass. Esophageal carcinoma is an important part of the differential diagnosis, commonly occurring as the squamous cell type and less commonly as adenocarcinoma. On plain films, this may be recognized by an abnormal tracheoesophageal stripe, dilation of the esophagus proximal to the obstructing mass. Diagnosis is confirmed at endoscopy or by barium swallow. CT may demonstrate an intraluminal mass, thickening of the esophagus, and metastases. Benign lesions of the esophagus such as leiomyomas (figure 14), fibromas, and lipomas may also cause masses in this mediastinal compartment. They usually involve the lower third of the esophagus and do not commonly cause proximal esophageal dilation. Other anomalies that may present in this compartment include diverticula, hernias, or megaesophagus due to achalasia or scleroderma.
Paravertebral abnormalities
Extramedullary hematopoiesis may also present as a posterior mediastinal mass. Extramedullary hematopoiesis is seen most commonly in diseases of ineffective erythropoiesis such as thalassemia and spherocytosis and can also be seen in sickle cell anemia. Expansion of the medullary cavity is usually associated with multiple paraspinal masses 58 (figure 15).
Mediastinal masses present a challenge, as they may include a vast number of diagnoses, each with complex imaging characteristics. Rigorous scrutiny of the normal contents of each compartment helps determine aberrancy. The final diagnosis depends as much on the clinical information (ie, patient demographics and symptoms), as the radiologic characteristics. Delineating the character and extent of a mass enough to guide proper diagnostic sampling and or therapeutic management remains an important radiologic role. AR
