Malignant thymoma [PDF]

Cancer, 1992
Sixty-one patients underwent operations for malignant thymomas between 1961 and 1989. Twenty-three patients had associated myasthenia gravis (MG), an incidence of 37.7%. Upon being admitted to the hospital, the patients' most common symptoms included chest pain, MG, cough, and dyspnea. Only 7 of 61 (11.5%) patients had no symptom.

Molecular Tumor Boards in Malignant Melanoma: Uncovering Challenges and Opportunities in a Bicenter Retrospective Analysis in Germany

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Molecular tumor boards (MTB), interdisciplinary teams that use tumor genomic data to guide personalized treatment decisions, have emerged as a promising strategy in melanoma care, although their real‐world clinical impact remains uncertain. This retrospective study evaluated advanced melanoma patients to assess molecularly guided treatment ...

Heterogeneity Analyzed by CT‐Based Habitat Analysis for Clinical Management of Cancers: A Narrative Review

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tumors are highly heterogeneous, and whole‐lesion radiomics analysis is a popular method for extracting texture features that reflect this heterogeneity, which can be used to build models for cancer diagnosis, staging, therapy response evaluation, and prognosis prediction.

The role of regulatory B cell/T follicular helper cell balance in thymoma and thymoma-associated myasthenia gravis

Scientific Reports
Thymoma is often associated with myasthenia gravis (MG). Abnormal lymphocyte differentiation often occurs in the thymoma tumor microenvironment (TME), leading to thymoma-associated autoimmune diseases.
