Acute hemorrhage in a normal thymus in neonates and infants has been reported in the literature. These patients were known to have an antecedent cause or defects in coagulation. The case of an adult who developed acute hemorrhage in a normal thymus and who was known not to have any defects in coagulation, hypertension, or other underlying cause is reported.
