A case is presented of invasive thymoma with recurrence in the pleura 6 years after thymectomy. Diagnosis of the pleural recurrence was by pleural fluid cytology and pleural biopsy. The histologic and cytologic features of the primary neoplasm and pleural recurrence are discussed and compared with the cytologic findings of thymomas in fine needle aspirates.
