| Abstract: | Invasive cystic thymoma is reported in two siblings (an 11-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy) and the radiographic, CT and ultrasonographic features are described. The tumours were removed by thoracotomy. Familial thymic masses are reviewed, and the imaging differential diagnosis of cystic anterior mediastinal mass in a child is discussed. |
