Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2020 Thymic tumours are a heterogeneous group of malignancies with a range of clinical presentations. The most common types are thymoma and thymic carcinoma, but overall it remains a rare cancer, and one without a clear aetiology. In this review of the epidemiology of the disease, the relationship between sex, age, and ethnicity is reviewed, along with ...

High CTLA-4 expression correlates with poor prognosis in thymoma patients [PDF]
OncoTarget, 2018 Thymomas, tumors that arise from epithelial cells of the thymus gland, are the most common neoplasms of the anterior mediastinum, with an incidence rate of approximately 2.5 per million/year.

Imaging Evaluation of Thymoma and Thymic Carcinoma
Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 Imaging is integral in the management of patients with thymoma and thymic carcinoma. At initial diagnosis and staging, imaging provides the clinical extent of local invasion as well as distant metastases to stratify patients for therapy and to determine ...

Thoracic Cancer, 2021 Surgical resection of the thymus is indicated in the presence of primary thymic diseases such as thymoma. Video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and robot‐assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) offer a minimally invasive approach to thymectomy.

Imbalance of Th17 and Tregs in thymoma may be a pathological mechanism of myasthenia gravis.
Molecular Immunology, 2021 An imbalance in Th17 cells and Tregs may be an important cause of the pathogenesis of thymoma with myasthenia gravis (MG). In this study, 30 patients with simple thymoma and 30 patients with thymoma with MG were analyzed.

Systemic circulating microRNA landscape in Lynch syndrome
International Journal of Cancer, Volume 152, Issue 5, Page 932-944, 1 March 2023., 2023 What's new? Systemic circulating microRNA expression patterns (c‐miRnomes) are altered during sporadic carcinogenesis and they have predictive potential in early cancer detection. However, their potential in carriers of inherited pathogenic mismatch‐repair gene variants associated with Lynch syndrome remains understudied.

Identification of differentially expressed circular RNAs associated with thymoma
Thoracic Cancer, 2021 Background Thymomas and thymic carcinomas are the most common tumor types among anterior mediastinal lesions. However, the relationship between molecular aberrations and thymoma patients are poorly understood, especially abnormal changes in the ...

Cancer, 1977 Forty-six thymomas, defined as neoplasms of thymic epithelium, were assessed in respect to histologic type, clinical manifestations and end results. Twenty-three were lymphoepithelial, 12 epithelial, and 11 spindled cell tumors. The sex distribution for all thymomas was approximately equal for males and females but the lymphoepithelial tumors were more
