Preoperative Temporal Elevation of Cytokeratin 19 Fragment in Thymoma With Extensive Necrosis: A Case Report [PDF]
In a mediastinal tumor accompanied by inflammation and a low‐density area, cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA) was elevated, but it decreased preoperatively. The pathological diagnosis was thymoma with extensive necrosis (possibly Type B). A temporal CYFRA elevation may indicate tumor necrosis. Thymoma with necrosis should be considered in the differential
