Abstract

Thymoma is often associated with other diseases, including autoimmune diseases and endocrine disorders. Ulcerative colitis is a nonspecific inflammatory disease and is thought to be an immune-mediated disorder; however, coincidence of thymoma and ulcerative colitis is rare. We treated a 51-year-old woman with invasive thymoma and ulcerative colitis. After excision of the invasive thymoma with partial resections of pericardium, left lung, brachiocephalic vein, and left phrenic nerve, the ulcerative colitis was cured.

摘要

胸腺瘤常与其他疾病相关，包括自身免疫性疾病和内分泌紊乱。溃疡性结肠炎是一种非特异性炎症性疾病，被认为是一种免疫介导的疾病；然而，胸腺瘤与溃疡性结肠炎同时存在的情况很少见。我们治疗了一名患有侵袭性胸腺瘤和溃疡性结肠炎的51岁女性。在切除侵袭性胸腺瘤并部分切除心包、左肺、头臂静脉和左膈神经后，溃疡性结肠炎得以治愈。
