Intrathoracic masses may arise from the chest wall, mediastinum, pleura, and pulmonary parenchyma. Primary malign tumors of the chest wall and pleura usually present with chest pain; however, the tumor may sometimes remain asymptomatic, until it grows large enough to cause compression-related symptoms. Herein, we present a 35-year-old female case with a giant intrathoracic mass. The patient was diagnosed with an Askin"s tumor and underwent extended surgical resection.
胸内肿块可能起源于胸壁、纵隔、胸膜和肺实质。胸壁和胸膜的原发性恶性肿瘤通常表现为胸痛；然而，肿瘤有时可能无症状，直到长得足够大引起压迫相关症状。在此，我们报告一例35岁女性巨大胸内肿块病例。该患者被诊断为Askin瘤并接受了扩大手术切除。
