Lymphoepithelioma-like thymic carcinoma in a 16-year-old boy with nephrotic syndrome--a case report
Abstract
Nephrotic syndrome can occur as a consequence of, among others, malignancy. In this report we describe a 16-year-old boy with secondary nephrotic syndrome associated with lymphoepithelioma-like thymic carcinoma, an extremely rare subtype ofthymic carcinoma with poor prognosis.
