Three cases are presented of eventual diagnostic errors concerning the thymus. In the first case right aberrating lobe appeared radiologically as a tumour of posterior mediastinum. In the second case, the large thymic malleability, enabled it to invade medium mediastinum and to show an extraordinary variability in shape when in decubitus. Finally, a post surgical hematomata, in a patient affected by a cyanogen cardiopathy actually showed some problems of radiological diagnosis with the characteristic thymus regeneration.
本文介绍了三例最终出现的关于胸腺的诊断错误病例。第一例中,右侧迷走叶在放射学上表现为后纵隔肿瘤。第二例中,胸腺具有较大的可塑性,使其能够侵犯中纵隔,并在卧位时呈现出形状的异常变化。最后,一名患有紫绀型心脏病的患者术后出现血肿,在胸腺再生的特征方面确实存在一些放射学诊断问题。
