Paragangliomas of the mediastinum are rare neoplasms, representing less than 0.3% of mediastinal tumours and less than 2% of all paragangliomas. To date, no definitive morphologic criteria exist that correlate with the clinical outcome of these tumours. This report describes three patients with peculiar primary paragangliomas of the posterior mediastinum: gangliocytic, dumbbell and functional paraganglioma. The clinicopathological characteristics of these patients are presented and the literature reviewed.
