      <Abstract>Introduction: Thymoma is the most frequent tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Surgical resection is the best treatment and has been considered the most important determinant of long-term survival.&#13;
&#13;
Clinical case: A 31-year-old male patient is presented with the diagnosis of a mediastinal tumor by chest tomography, who underwent a thymectomy, finding a giant tumor that was completely removed. Microscopic analysis completed a B1 thymoma.&#13;
&#13;
Conclusions: Low grade thymomas are usually easy to remove and have low complication rates with a good prognosis</Abstract>
