- W4362578129 abstract "Thymomas present either concurrently with myasthenia gravis, with local pressure symptoms, or asymptomatically as a mediastinal mass. Due to its variable presentation, the incidence is low, as not all cases would be identified. Thymomas can present with a rare entity of combined T-cell and B-cell immunodeficiency in adults. Thymectomy is the most important prognostic factor, including preventing autoimmune manifestations of thymoma, but immunodeficiency may persist after thymectomy.The authors report a case of thymoma with evidence of immunodeficiency, manifesting as recurrent pneumonia and respiratory distress in an HIV-seronegative 62-year-old man with a suspected diagnosis 3 years before admission. During his bouts of pneumonia, blood cultures revealed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, which was initially treated with vancomycin and then with clindamycin. Although hypogammaglobulinemia was not established in our low-resource setting, there was a reduced CD4-cell count with an abnormal CD4/CD8 ratio. The patient responded well to the first course of antibiotics. However, the second attempt was unsuccessful, which led to his demise.Clinicians should be aware that thymoma can cause immunodeficiency. Clinical suspicion should be raised in patients who present with recurrent infections, particularly in thymoma cases with adult-onset immunodeficiency." @default.
