RESUMO
The pathogenesis of residual thymic cysts after treatment for mediastinal Hodgkin's disease is uncertain. Their presence after adequate treatment often presents the oncologist and the thoracic surgeon with a therapeutic dilemma. Two patients with residual thymic cysts after curative treatment for mediastinal Hodgkin's disease are described and the management discussed.
