A 37-year-old man with a huge pleural cyst, presented with symptoms of right heart compression. The mass on the right side of the chest seemed initially to be in connection with the mediastinum. Computed tomography failed to define its relationship with the pericardium, and echocardiography excluded any involvement of the mediastinal structures. The final diagnosis was a congenital thymic cyst exclusively located in the pleural cavity.
一名37岁男性患有巨大胸膜囊肿,出现右心受压症状。胸部右侧的肿块最初似乎与纵隔相连。计算机断层扫描未能明确其与心包的关系,超声心动图排除了纵隔结构的任何受累情况。最终诊断为仅位于胸腔内的先天性胸腺囊肿。
