We report a new case of a mediastinal mass in a 19-year-old patient corresponding microscopically to an association of unilocular thymic cyst and true thymic hyperplasia. Our aim is to highlight the absence of specificity of clinical and radiological findings and the necessity of a thorough sampling of the tumor in order to establish the diagnosis.
我们报告了一例19岁患者纵隔肿块的新病例,显微镜下显示为单房性胸腺囊肿与真性胸腺增生并存。我们的目的是强调临床和影像学表现缺乏特异性,以及为明确诊断对肿瘤进行全面取材的必要性。
