    Author: Lamesch AJ.
    Journal: Z Kinderchir; 1983 Feb; 38(1):16-8. PubMed ID: 6688908.
    Abstract:
    Report of a case of massive thymic hyperplasia in a 7-month-old female infant causing a respiratory distress syndrome by displacement and compression of the bronchopulmonary system. Steroid therapy and ventilation were ineffective. Thymectomy had to be performed because of severe respiratory distress. In a review of the literature we did not find any report on a similar case.
