Primary Intrapulmonary Thymoma Presenting as a Solitary Pulmonary Nodule.

Woohyun Jung1, Chang Hyun Kang1, Young Tae Kim1, In Kyu Park1.   

Abstract

Primary intrapulmonary thymoma (PIT) is a very rare lesion of uncertain pathogenesis. PIT should be considered when the histopathological appearance of a lung tumor shows features that are uncommon but similar to those of a thymoma. In this case report, we discuss the case of a 59-year-old female with a solitary pulmonary nodule that was confirmed to be PIT on the basis of pathological tests. Treatment with complete resection showed good results.
