José Vilar and Friends Case 17 (Update: Solution!)

Dear friends,

The fall is here and after a hike in the Teruel mountains I collected some mushrooms (“lactarius deliciosus” and “lepista nuda”, the blue one) and now, after tasting them, and perfectly healthy, I am ready to send you a new case.

 

This is a 73-year-old lady with a fractured hip; she had a this preoperatory chest radiograph. No respiratory symptoms.

 

Let us see what you think and more images will follow in a couple of days.

Update: 

If you asked for the lateral projection here it is.

Does this clarify the case?

      Lower mediastinal mass, looks calcified, could be cold abscess. Need lateral view and hystory. And a CT would be nice, also.
