Thymoliposarcoma

Thymoliposarcoma is an exceedingly rare thymic neoplasm with only five reports in English literature to date. We report another patient, a 36-year-old male, who developed local recurrences 4-years after initial resection. The clinicopathologic features of the present and previously reports were compared with particular emphasis on their morphologic spectrum and differential diagnosis.
