a Computed tomography revealed a large tumor (8.1 × 7.6 × 6.4) in the left posterior thorax that was in contact with the chest wall, mediastinum, and descending aorta. The T9th ICA (arrow) flowed into both the tumor (green arrow) and the AKA (arrowheads). b 3D‐CT image reconstruction showed the tumor occupying the left thorax (green) and the tumor‐feeding artery (the T9–T11th ICAs are colored in pink). The small arrow indicates the T9th ICA, and the arrowhead indicates the AKA. c T2-weighted MRI revealed a spherical tumor with high signal intensity
