ABSTRACT

RESUMO: Relatamos o caso de um paciente do sexo feminino, 76 anos, com tosse há seis meses. Os exames laboratoriais estavam normais. Na radiografia do tórax observou-se alargamento do mediastino no terço médio do tórax. Posteriormente, foram realizadas tomografia computadorizada e ressonância magnética do tórax que caracterizaram uma massa localizada no mediastino anterior, envolvendo a aorta ascendente e comprimindo a veia cava superior. O diagnóstico histológico pós-biópsia e ressecção parcial da lesão foi de um carcinoma tímico de células escamosas. (AU)


ABSTRACT: We report the case of a female patient, 76 years old, with a cough for six months. Laboratory tests were normal. Chest X-ray revealed enlargement of the mediastinum in the middle third of the thorax. Later, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the thorax were performed, characterizing a mass located in the anterior mediastinum, involving the ascending aorta and compressing the superior vena cava. Histological diagnosis after biopsy and partial resection of the lesion was a thymic squamous cell carcinoma. (AU)
