Malignant thymoma occurring concurrently with mediastinal liposarcoma in a 49-year-old man is described. The patient underwent an incomplete resection of the mediastinal mass followed by irradiation therapy and additional chemotherapy. He died about 9 months after the detection of a mediastinal mass on chest X-ray films and the immediate cause of death was superior vena cava syndrome. The incidence of primary liposarcoma of the mediastinum alone is extremely rare. Only a few more than 20 with such a lesion have been documented in Japan. A review of the literature of patients with mediastinal liposarcoma and thymoma associated with malignancies revealed no case of an association of thymoma and liposarcoma.
本文描述了一名49岁男性同时发生恶性胸腺瘤和纵隔脂肪肉瘤的病例。患者接受了纵隔肿块的不完全切除，随后进行了放射治疗和额外的化疗。在胸部X线片发现纵隔肿块约9个月后，患者死亡，直接死因是上腔静脉综合征。仅原发性纵隔脂肪肉瘤的发病率极低。在日本，仅有20多例有此类病变的病例被记录。对纵隔脂肪肉瘤和伴有恶性肿瘤的胸腺瘤患者的文献回顾显示，尚无胸腺瘤与脂肪肉瘤相关联的病例。
