    Tuberculosis, upper respiratory tract infections, influenza, pneumonia, suppurative infections, histoplasmosis, actinomycosis, radiotherapy, and syphilis can all cause chronic mediastinal inflammation. Chronic mediastinal inflammation is one of the important causes of superior vena cava obstruction. When chronic mediastinal inflammation is accompanied by severe superior vena cava obstruction, surgical operation is required to establish collateral circulation and vascular bypass surgery.
