Diagnosis With Brief Discussion

Diagnosis
Thymic carcinoma with pericardial invasion
Radiologic Findings
Chest radiograph shows a contour-bulging mass with multiple calcifications in the aortopulmonary window and cardiomegaly. CT scans show a lobulated mass containing amorphous calcifications in the prevascular space. There is another soft tissue mass in the transverse sinus of pericardium. Large pericardial effusion is also noted. Well-differentiated thymic carcinoma was diagnosed by CT-guided biopsy (WHO classification B3).
