摘要

胸腺癌是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤，起源于胸腺上皮细胞。尽管积极的局部治疗，胸腺癌患者倾向于在远处复发;包括:局部淋巴结、骨、肝和肺。脑转移在胸腺恶性肿瘤中很少见到。我们在此报告一例胸腺癌合并脑转移。

Thymic carcinoma with brain metastases: A rare presentation of a rare malignancy

Thymic carcinoma is an uncommon malignant neoplasm arising from the epithelial cells of the thymus. Despite aggressive local treatment, patients with thymic carcinoma tend to relapse at distant sites; including: regional lymph nodes, bone, liver and lung. Brain metastases are seldom seen in cases of thymic malignancies. Herein we report a case of thymic carcinoma complicated by brain metastases.
