Cervicomediastinal thymic cyst: report of a case.

Hüseyin Ozbey1, Manfred Ratschek, Michael Höllwarth.   

Abstract

Congenital thymic cysts are rare. Consequently, they are often misdiagnosed and not included in the preoperative differential diagnosis of neck masses. We report the case of a 7-year-old boy with a large cervicomediastinal thymic cyst to increase the awareness of this unusual entity. We discuss the clinical features, presentation, and pathogenesis of thymic cysts.
