Popis: Anterior mediastinal lesions which are directly posterior to the sternum and have no significant parasternal component are difficult to approach for biopsy. Very few cases of CT-guided trans-sternal mediastinal mass biopsy have been reported in the literature. We report two cases of CT guided trans-sternal mediastinal mass biopsy to highlight the importance of this technique. Keywords: CT scan, Mediastinal mass, Trans-sternal approach, Biopsy.
