A 65-year-old woman with ocular myasthenia was found to have three tumours in the anterior mediastinum, revealed by magnetic resonance imaging. All three lesions were radically resected. Histologically, one was a mixed-type thymoma, one a thymic lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma, and the third had features of both these types. This appears to be the first reported case of coexisting thymic lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (TLC) and thymoma associated with ocular myasthenia.
一名65岁的眼肌型重症肌无力女性患者经磁共振成像检查发现前纵隔有三个肿瘤。所有三个病灶均行根治性切除。组织学检查显示,一个为混合型胸腺瘤,一个为胸腺淋巴上皮瘤样癌,第三个具有这两种类型的特征。这似乎是首例报道的与眼肌型重症肌无力相关的胸腺淋巴上皮瘤样癌(TLC)和胸腺瘤并存的病例。
