Abstract：
:Among the epithelial tumours of the thymus, thymic carcinomas are rare, involving more aggressive locoregional behaviour and a poor prognosis. More than one-third of cases present lymph node metastasis during an evaluation of the extension of a primitive mediastinal tumour of thymic origin. The authors report an unusual case in a 46-year-old woman presenting a metastatic form. The diagnosis of epidermoid thymic carcinoma was based on the histopathological examination of a right supraclavicular lymph node, associated with an anterior radiological mediastinal tumoral syndrome, raising the delicate problem of its diagnosis and treatment.

If the serum D-dimer level is lower than a threshold level which depends on the assay technique (usually 500 micrograms/l), pulmonary embolism can be excluded with a predictive value of 95%. This makes D-dimer assay an ideal screening tool for ...
