Thymomas originates from the epithelial cells of thymic tissue. These tumors commonly occur in the anterior mediastinum. However, thymomas can arise anywhere from the aberrant or remnant thymus in the neck or mediastinum. Ectopic cervical thymoma is a rare disease. It is important to be aware that cervical masses can also be thymomas rather than thyroid or parathyroid masses. Here, we present a case of a 62-year-old female who presented with swelling in the neck and was diagnosed with cervical thymoma type AB.
胸腺瘤起源于胸腺组织的上皮细胞。这些肿瘤通常发生在前纵隔。然而，胸腺瘤可发生于颈部或纵隔中异常或残留的胸腺的任何部位。异位颈部胸腺瘤是一种罕见疾病。必须意识到颈部肿块也可能是胸腺瘤，而非甲状腺或甲状旁腺肿块。在此，我们报告一例62岁女性患者，其因颈部肿胀就诊，被诊断为AB型颈部胸腺瘤。
