Abstract

A Thymic carcinoma in adults is rare. We present the case of a 47-year-old man, who was treated conservatively for spondylolisthesis L5/S1 in our institution for several years. In the further course, the patient complained about pain exacerbation with acute lower back pain. Cross-sectional scanning showed a tumor of the lumbar vertebral body three. A biopsy of this mass revealed a metastatic thymic carcinoma of the squamous cells. After palliative therapy, the patient died 9 months after initial diagnosis.
