Abstract

We present a case of intrapulmonary metastasis developing 18 years after complete resection of thymoma. An 8 mm nodule in the lower lobe of the left lung was noted on chest X-ray in a 76-year-old woman who had undergone complete resection of Masaoka's stage II thymoma 18 years earlier. Since the nodule grew to 17 mm during a 2-year follow-up, wedge resection was performed. The lesion was histologically diagnosed as an intrapulmonary metastasis from thymoma. Extremely late recurrence after complete resection of thymoma is discussed.
