Thymolipomas are unusual benign neoplasms composed of mature adipose and thymic tissue that represent less than 10% of all thymic tumours in man. A thymofibrolipoma is a histological variant of thymolipoma in which there is an additional abundance of fibrous connective tissue. Thymolipoma has been reported previously in one dog and one cat, but thymofibrolipoma has never been described. This report documents the clinical and pathological features of two cases of canine thymofibrolipoma.
胸腺脂肪瘤是一种罕见的良性肿瘤,由成熟的脂肪组织和胸腺组织组成,在人类所有胸腺肿瘤中占比不到10%。胸腺纤维脂肪瘤是胸腺脂肪瘤的一种组织学变体,其中还存在大量的纤维结缔组织。此前曾有1例犬和1例猫的胸腺脂肪瘤的报道,但胸腺纤维脂肪瘤从未被描述过。本报告记录了2例犬胸腺纤维脂肪瘤的临床和病理特征。
