Presentamos tres parientes con un hemangioma de mediastino anterior. Discutimos los aspectos clínicos, diagnósticos y terapéuticos, comparándolos con una amplia revisión de la literatura, haciendo especial referencia al tiempo quirúrgico, ya que los tres tenían compromiso de la vena cava superior y dos de ellos precisaron de una angioplastia venosa para su exéresis completa.
