Multilocular Thymic Cysts with Follicular Hyperplasia: Report of a Case
We herein describe a rare case of multilocular thymic cysts (MTCs) with follicular hyperplasia. The patient was a 50-year-old man, who was symptom-free. A mediastinal mass was found on chest computed tomography (CT) followed after pancreatitis. Chest CT revealed a 30 × 10 mm anterior mediastinal mass with multiple cystic lesions. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an anterior mediastinal cystic ...
متن کاملMultilocular Thymic Cyst with Prominent Lymphoid Folli- cular Hyperplasia: A Case Report
We present herein an unusual case of multilocular thymic cyst, with prominent lymphoid follicular hyperplasia, in a 64-year-old man. It was incidentally founded as a mediastinal mass on chest radiography, during a routine health check-up. Computed tomography revealed a cystic lesion, which contains thick septa involving the thymus. The resected mass, 8×4 cm in diameter, involved the thymus and ...
متن کاملMicronodular Thymoma with Lymphoid Stroma in a Multilocular Thymic Cyst: A Case Study
Herein, we report a case of micronodular thymoma with lymphoid stroma in a previously healthy 73-year-old male. Thymectomy was performed. The solid and macrocystic masses were encapsulated with focal invasion. The solid portion consisted of nodules of bland-looking spindle or round epithelial cells in lymphoid stroma containing prominent germinal centers. The epithelial cells had moderate amoun...
متن کاملPulmonary Nodular Lymphoid Hyperplasia: A Rare Case Mimicking Malignancy
Pulmonary nodular lymphoid hyperplasia (PNLH) is a reactive lymphoid proliferation manifesting as multiple solitary nodules or localized infiltrates in the lungs. It is a type of benign lymphoproliferative disease that can affect the lungs. We present the case of a 41-year-old female patient with respiratory symptoms such as productive cough, left chest pain, and dyspnea. Imaging findings revea...
متن کاملMultilocular Thymic Cyst Associated with Mediastinal Teratoma: A Case Report
Congenital cysts are typically unilocular and thin-walled to the point of translucency; careful histopathologic examination shows no evidence of inflammation. In contrast, acquired thymic cysts are usually multilocular, hence the commonly used term “multilocular thymic cyst (MTC).” These cysts have thick, fibrous walls, and histopathologic examination typically reveals significant inflammation ...
