Abstract
- Thymomas are exceedingly rare tumours of the anterior mediastinum in children. An early awareness helps timely surgical intervention. Thymomas can occasionally be extremely aggressive. The loss of contour on chest X-Ray, to be confirmed as a large anterior mediastinal mass at computerised tomography, serves identification of a typical bilobed thymic tumour.<br />Competing Interests: Compliance with Ethical StandardsThe authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.
