A routine chest radiograph of a 27-year-old woman who presented with chronic cough for four weeks disclosed an anterior mediastinal mass simulating cardiomegaly. The computed tomography revealed a mass with diffuse fat density intermingled with soft tissue density. At thoracotomy a thymolipoma weighing 750 g was completely resected and typical histological findings were demonstrated. She made a good recovery and remained in good health at her most recent follow-up visit.
