Lymphocyte-rich thymoma often contains lymphoblasts and lymphoblastic lymphoma often infiltrates the thymus gland. Although these two neoplasms are clinically distinct in most case, their cytologic features may be similar on biopsy. We describe a fine-needle aspiration biopsy of a thymoma in a 50-yr-old man to increase awareness of this pitfall in cytologic interpretation.
富含淋巴细胞的胸腺瘤常含有淋巴母细胞，而淋巴母细胞淋巴瘤常浸润胸腺。虽然这两种肿瘤在大多数情况下临床特征不同，但活检时它们的细胞学特征可能相似。我们描述了一名50岁男性胸腺瘤的细针穿刺活检，以提高对细胞学解释中这一陷阱的认识。
