INTRODUCTION
Ectopic thymoma is a rare neoplasm, which can be developed in various sites, with the lung being amongst the rarest.
CASE PRESENTATION
In this paper, we present the case of a woman with a slow-growing ectopic thymoma, stemming from the visceral pleura of the upper lobe of the left lung anteriorly, extending into the left lung and the cardiac wall, invading the fatty tissue near the pericardium, notably without infiltrating the lung or cardiac parenchyma. The thymoma was successfully removed via thoracotomy.
CONCLUSION
Ectopic thymoma is an uncommon neoplasm. To our knowledge, a case of an ectopic thymoma stemming from the visceral pleura of the lung is extremely rare.
引言
异位胸腺瘤是一种罕见的肿瘤，可发生于多个部位，其中发生于肺部的情况最为罕见。
病例报告
在本文中，我们报告了一例生长缓慢的异位胸腺瘤女性病例，该肿瘤起源于左肺上叶前侧的脏层胸膜，延伸至左肺和心脏壁，侵犯心包附近的脂肪组织，但未浸润肺实质或心脏实质。该胸腺瘤通过开胸手术成功切除。
结论
异位胸腺瘤是一种不常见的肿瘤。据我们所知，起源于肺脏层胸膜的异位胸腺瘤病例极为罕见。
