Abstract

Timik kistler nadir olup ön mediastende sadece %3 oranında görülürler. Konjenital ya da akkiz olabilirler. Timik kistler muhtemelen puberte öncesi en büyük gelişime ulaştığından dolayı çoğunlukla 2 yaşından sonra birinci dekatta ortaya çıkarlar. Mediastinal timik kistler genellikle asemptomatiktir ve tesadüfen rutin akciğer grafisinde bulunurlar. Nadiren vasküler obstrüksiyon belirtilerine neden olabilirler. Bu çalışmada pulmoner arter obstrüksiyonuna neden olan, nadir bir uniloküler timik kistin görüntülenmesi ve cerrahi tedavisi sunuldu.

Left pulmonary artery obstruction due to a large congenital thymic cyst: A rare cause of pulmonary stenosis

Abstract

Thymic cysts occur relatively rarely and account for only about 3% of all anterior mediastinal masses. They may be either congenital or acquired. They usually present in the first decade after the age of 2 years, possibly because the thymus attains its greatest development before puberty. Mediastinal thymic cysts are usually asymptomatic and are incidentally found on routine chest roentgenograms. They may rarely cause symptoms of vascular obstruction. This study presents an unusual case of a unilocular thymic cyst that caused pulmonary artery obstruction, cyst imaging and surgical treatment.
