【 摘 要 】

A patient who had a second recurrent intra-pericardial thymoma is presented. The tumor was expanding in the pericardial space and compressed the pulmonary trunk. The obstruction of the pulmonary trunk could have resulted in a fatal outcome. Surgical management was required, and complete surgical resection and mediastinal adjuvant radiation therapy were effective in this patient’s management.
