A chest radiograph (Figure 1) showed well-circumscribed, lobulated, soft-tissue masses located at the posterior mediastinal regions.
Computed tomography with pulmonary (a) and mediastinal (b) window settings demonstrates smooth heterogeneous (soft tissue and fat densities) bilateral masses in the paravertebral regions.

For further evaluation, a chest CT scan (Figure 2) was performed and confirmed the presence of round, bilateral, heterogeneous, paravertebral masses as well as hepatosplenomegaly.
