  • Title: Radical excision of invasive thymoma with intracaval and intracardial extension: a successful case report.
    Author: Filippone G, Savona I, Tomasello V, Guzzetta P, Zarcone N, Agate V.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 1997 Oct; 38(5):547-9. PubMed ID: 9358819.
    Abstract:
    A case of invasive thymoma with intracaval and intracardiac extension is reported. The use of cardiopulmonary bypass was necessary to achieve a radical excision of the tumor thus avoiding early death due to cardiovascular complications. This highly unusual mode of tumor presentation makes this particular case worth reporting.
