Abstract

Acquired thymic cysts are multilocular and show florid xanthomatous and myofibroblastic inflammation. They usually occur in association with mediastinal neoplasms, systemic autoimmune diseases, or trauma. We describe 2 cases (in a 12-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy) of acquired thymic cysts occurring in association with cystic teratomas, an association that to our knowledge has not been described previously in the literature.

摘要

获得性胸腺囊肿为多房性，表现为显著的黄色瘤样和肌纤维母细胞性炎症。它们通常与纵隔肿瘤、系统性自身免疫性疾病或创伤相关。我们描述了2例（1例为12岁女孩，1例为11岁男孩）与囊性畸胎瘤相关的获得性胸腺囊肿病例，据我们所知，这种关联此前在文献中尚未有描述。
