What Are Solid Chest Tumors?

Solid chest tumors refer to non-fluid-filled masses located within the thoracic cavity, which may arise from the lungs, mediastinum (central chest space), chest wall, or pleura (lining of the lungs). These tumors may be:

  • Benign (non-cancerous), such as lipomas, fibromas, or neurogenic tumors

  • Malignant (cancerous), including sarcomas, lymphomas, or lung cancers

In children, common types include neuroblastoma, Ewing’s sarcoma, or germ cell tumors. In adults, they may be associated with primary lung cancer or metastatic disease.

  • Shortness of breath
