Key Points

Anterior mediastinotomy demonstrated a high pathological diagnosis rate of 90.4% in the sample.

The study analyzed data from 2013 to 2023, providing insights into diagnostic methods for anterior mediastinal masses.
Results highlight that TTFNAB has lower diagnostic yield compared to surgical biopsies but shorter hospital stays.
