Elitoki,
I agree that this Q (#44) was discussed here, and more than once... I don't remember any single time we riched the consensus. The link to eMedicine is useful, but it gives several other clues to SVCS that are missing in this particular case, such as trunk or extremity swelling, JVD, etc... All of these are caused by mediastinal mass, that IS NOT PRESENT on CXR...

If so, it is probably not SVCS but rather lymphatic obstruction (F)...
