| 摘要 |
Thymoma is an uncommon neoplasm that derived from thymic epithelial cells. Clinically, it is slow‑growing and most patients are over 40 years old. Thymoma corresponds to 30% of anterior mediastinal tumors in adults but <1% in pediatric patients. However, thymoma in pediatric group is considered to be highly aggressive. We report a case of invasive thymoma in a 3‑year‑old girl, presented as respiratory distress with massive pleural effusion. She developed a superior vena cava syndrome soon after admission. A subsequent computed tomography demonstrated a large mediastinal mass with compression of great vessels. Due to the rare occurrence of thymoma at such a young age, an
accurate diagnosis was made only after an open biopsy had been performed. The patient underwent a near‑complete resection of the mass as well as adjuvant chemotherapy. She has remained well at the 6‑year follow‑up. |
