Thymolipoma is a rare, benign tumour in the anterior mediastinum, representing about 2-9% of thymus neoplasms. It consists of fat tissue mixed with thymus tissue and is often discovered incidentally. Symptoms may occur due to compression of nearby structures. In this case, a 41-year-old woman with upper back pain and shortness of breath was diagnosed after an MRI showed a large lipomatous tumour in the mediastinum. The tumour was surgically removed, and pathology confirmed thymolipoma.
胸腺瘤是前纵隔罕见的良性肿瘤，约占胸腺肿瘤的2-9%。它由脂肪组织和胸腺组织混合而成，常为偶然发现。症状可能因附近结构受压而出现。在此病例中，一名41岁女性因上背部疼痛和呼吸急促就诊，MRI显示纵隔有一个巨大的脂肪瘤样肿瘤，诊断为胸腺瘤。该肿瘤通过手术切除，病理证实为胸腺瘤。
