摘要
Ectopic hamartomatous thymoma （EHT） is a very rare benign neoplasm. The histogenesis of EHT remains unclear. It was firstly described by Smith et aF in 1982 and was named EHT by Rosai et al2 in 1984. Since then dozens of cases have been reported. We herein report one case of EHT, describing the magnetic resonance （MR） findings correlated with its clinicopathological features, and reviewed literatures.
