A member asked:
Is residual thymus is abnormal for the age 30 years?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
While identification of a thymus shadow on x-ray is most common in young children it is occasionally seen in adults. By itself the finding is a curiosity rather than a worrisome sign. The doc who obtained the x-ray & knows the facts of the case needs to be the one to explain its importance in the case at hand.
