Case Report: Surgical Therapy for Left Innominate Vein Aneurysm Under Thoracoscopy
Left innominate vein aneurysm is extremely rare, with a limited number of case reports present in the literature. Herein, we report a case of a 50-year-old female patient presenting with an incidental finding of an anterior mediastinal mass on chest radiography during a routine health examination. C...
