摘要

背景:多房性胸腺囊肿(mtc)在成人人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)很少报道。病例介绍:我们描述了一个男性与未经治疗的艾滋病毒有症状的MTC的情况。基于放射成像和活检建立推定诊断。病理诊断和排除恶性肿瘤后，最终证实胸腺切除术。结合开始抗逆转录病毒治疗，患者术后恢复良好，症状得到缓解。结论:我们的病例报告和文献回顾有助于强调MTCs是发生在HIV感染者中的重要临床实体。

Multilocular Thymic Cyst in a Patient with Untreated HIV/AIDS: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Background: Multilocular thymic cysts (MTCs) in adults with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are rarely reported.

Case presentation: We describe a case of symptomatic MTC in a male with untreated HIV. A presumptive diagnosis was established based on radiographic imaging and biopsy. Pathologic diagnosis and exclusion of malignancy were ultimately confirmed following thymectomy. In conjunction with starting antiretroviral therapy, the patient recovered well post-operatively with a resolution of his presenting symptoms.

Conclusion: Our case report and review of the literature serve to highlight MTCs as an important clinical entity occurring in persons with HIV.

期刊介绍： Current HIV Research covers all the latest and outstanding developments of HIV research by publishing original research, review articles and guest edited thematic issues. The novel pioneering work in the basic and clinical fields on all areas of HIV research covers: virus replication and gene expression, HIV assembly, virus-cell interaction, viral pathogenesis, epidemiology and transmission, anti-retroviral therapy and adherence, drug discovery, the latest developments in HIV/AIDS vaccines and animal models, mechanisms and interactions with AIDS related diseases, social and public health issues related to HIV disease, and prevention of viral infection. Periodically, the journal invites guest editors to devote an issue on a particular area of HIV research of great interest that increases our understanding of the virus and its complex interaction with the host.
