We report a radical resection of a mediastinal angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma, which grew invasively into the pulmonary artery wall, was adherent to the posterior aorta and close to the main stem of the left coronary artery. A transection of the aorta was performed using cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest for a safe and radical removal that resulted in symptom relief.807002eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAngiomatoid fibrous histiocytomaCardiopulmonary bypassMediastinal tumourSurgical resectionTransection of the ascending aortaCardiology and Cardiovascular MedicinePulmonary and Respiratory MedicineSurgery/dk/atira/pure/researchoutput/researchoutputtypes/contributiontojournal/article10.1093/icvts/ivae214
