Two case reports of thymolipoma are presented. In a review of the literature on the subject, the clinical and etiologic features of this nonmalignant tumor in the anterior mediastinum are discussed. Although rare, thymolipoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of mediastinal tumors.
