Resection of an invasive thymoma extending into the superior vena cava and right atrium
Abstract
Although invasive thymoma commonly infiltrates mediastinal structures, intracardiac extension from intracaval growth is rare. We present a case of invasive thymoma with intravascular invasion of the superior vena cava extending into the right atrium.
