Pulmonary metastasis after thymomectomy ; two cases of thymoma

The Journal of the Japanese Association for Chest Surgery, 1993
胸腺腫の血行性あるいはリンパ行性転移は比較的稀れとされている.最近われわれは胸腺腫にて胸腺腫および胸腺全摘出術を施行後, 5年2ヵ月, 13年10ヵ月後にそれぞれ肺転移が発見され, 再手術にて転移巣を切除し得た2症例を経験した。初回手術時の病期はそれぞれ正岡分類の病期III期, IVa期と明かな被膜浸潤を呈していたが, 組織学的に上皮細胞の異型性あるいは血管侵襲像は明かでなく, 初回手術時に転移の危険性を予測するのは困難と思われた.胸腺腫の他臓器転移例で外科治療の適応になる症例は稀れであるが, 呈示した2症例のように転移巣が肺に限局し, かつ転移巣出現までに長期間を要した症例に対しては積極的な手術も必要であろう.

Minimalist Three-Dimensional Thoracoscopic Extended Thymomectomy in a Patient With Myasthenia Gravis

Journal of Visualized Surgery, 2019
Thymoma represents a relatively rare slowly growing tumor of the thymic gland. Complete thymomectomy along with all thymic and peri-thymic tissue is recommended to reduce risks of recurrence and proved to be beneficial for patients with associated myasthenia gravis (MG).

Germinal centers are associated with postthymectomy myasthenia gravis in patients with thymoma. [PDF]

Eur J Neurol
Abstract Background and purpose Germinal centers (GCs) can be observed in the thymic tissues of patients with thymoma‐associated myasthenia gravis (MG). Although an association between thymic GCs and MG has been suggested, it is unknown whether the presence of GCs could predict the development of MG after the resection of thymoma, known as ...

Difference in the distribution of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells and FOXP3+ T cells between micronodular thymoma with lymphoid stroma and micronodular thymic carcinoma with lymphoid stroma. [PDF]

Pathol Int, 2021
Micronodular thymoma with lymphoid stroma (MNT) is a rare thymic epithelial neoplasm subtype characterized by a micronodular tumor cell growth pattern and abundant lymphoid stroma. Micronodular thymic carcinoma with lymphoid stroma (MNCA) is considered as a malignant counterpart of MNT and exhibits a growth pattern similar to that of MNT but has ...

Pure Red Cell Aplasia as an Isolated Paraneoplastic Manifestation of Thymoma: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Thymomas are epithelial tumors of the anterior mediastinum and are frequently associated with paraneoplastic autoimmune disorders. Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is a rare but clinically significant complication, caused by immune‐mediated suppression of erythropoiesis.

Myasthenic crisis

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 8-19, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Myasthenic crisis (MC) is a life‐threatening manifestation of myasthenia gravis (MG) defined by respiratory insufficiency that requires the use of invasive or non‐invasive ventilation. This is often the result of respiratory muscle weakness but can also be due to bulbar weakness with upper airway collapse. MC occurs in approximately 15%–20% of
