A 41-year-old man with myasthenia gravis was referred to our clinic to undergo a thymectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery. After physical examination of the thorax and evaluation by computed tomography, a mass lesion was noticed in the neck and thymectomy was performed by partial sternotomy combined with a cervical incision. The cervical thymoma was discontinuous with the thymus. Thymoma in the neck has rarely been reported. In this case report we emphasize the possible presence of thymoma in the neck and the importance of neck evaluation in patients with myasthenia gravis.
一名41岁的重症肌无力男性患者被转诊至我院，拟通过电视辅助胸腔镜手术进行胸腺切除术。在对胸部进行体格检查并经计算机断层扫描评估后，发现颈部有一个肿块病变，遂通过部分胸骨切开术联合颈部切口进行了胸腺切除术。颈部胸腺瘤与胸腺不连续。颈部胸腺瘤鲜有报道。在本病例报告中，我们强调了颈部可能存在胸腺瘤以及对重症肌无力患者进行颈部评估的重要性。
