Multiloculated thymic cyst is a cystic reaction of medullary
epithelium to inflammatory process. In most cases, the exact
cause of the inflammation is not known. Hodgkin lymphoma and
multiloculated thymic cyst coexistence is a rare condition and
may cause significant diagnostic difficulties. Herein, we present
a rare case who underwent surgery for multiloculated thymic cyst
and was subsequently diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma and
had a concurrent pericardial cyst.
