BACKGROUND Because of the rarity of thymoma, no randomized trials have prospectively detected the prognosis and optimal treatment for type B2 thymoma. The aim of this study is to investigate the treatment and prognosis for patients with type B2 thymoma. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the outcome of 42 patients with type B2 thymoma who were treated between 1995 and 2010 in Zhejiang Cance...
BACKGROUND Combined thymic carcinoma is a malignant neoplasm of the thymus recently added to the 4th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumors of the lung, pleura, thymus and heart. It involves at least one type of thymic carcinoma and another thymic epithelial tumor. The previously used term "combined thymic epithelial tumor" has been abandoned. CASE PRESENTATIO...
BACKGROUND Immunodeficiency with a thymoma (Good's syndrome) is a rare condition occurring in patients with adult-onset hypogammaglobulinemia that is progressive after the removal of thymoma. Recently, we encountered a patient with Good's syndrome who suddenly developed opportunistic encephalitis 4 years after the resection of thymoma without a history of infectious complications. CASE PRESEN...

Thymic carcinoma (TC) is often very difficult to distinguish from type B3 thymoma and lung squamous cell carcinoma (L-SCC) involving the anterior mediastinum. The present study evaluated the usefulness of immunohistochemical markers including c-Kit, CD5, glucose transporter-1 (GLUT-1), claudin-1 (CLDN-1), thymoproteasome β5t, p53 and Ki-67 (MIB-1) and thymic cortical environmental marker cells,...
Pleural spread is difficult to treat in malignancies, especially in lung cancer and thymoma. Monotherapy with surgery fails to have a better survival benefit than palliative chemotherapy, the currently accepted treatment. Photodynamic therapy utilizes a photosensitizer to target the tumor site, and the tumor is exposed to light after performing a pleurectomy and tumor resection. However, the be...
PURPOSE Determine muscle and neuronal autoantibody frequencies in patients with thymoma, with and without paraneoplastic neurological accompaniments. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Analysis of IgG autoantibodies in stored serum collected between 1985 and 2003 from 201 patients with histologically diagnosed thymoma (including six with thymic carcinoma). Contemporary assays quantitated antibodies reactive...
INTRODUCTION The management of locally advanced inoperable malignant thymoma is difficult as there are no large randomized clinical trial data to guide treatment. However various case series have shown that malignant thymoma is often a chemosensitive disease. Cisplatin-based chemotherapy has been the gold-standard in the management of these patients. However when thymic cancers are complicated ...
The surgical strategy in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) is influenced by the suspicion of thymoma based on mediastinal imaging. Aim of this retrospective study was to analyse the accuracy of CT of the mediastinum in predicting the histological findings in patients with MG referred for thymectomy. Thirty-four CT-scans of MG patients referred for thymectomy between October 1989 and October ...
BACKGROUND Autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs), involving immune disturbances resulting from auto-inflammatory mechanisms, are a group of diseases characterized by autoimmunity and autoimmunemediated organ damage. Thymoma, whose mechanism is also associated with immune abnormalities, is the most common neoplasm of the anterior mediastinum. But thymoma with ARDs is relatively less frequent. The...
