Neuroendocrine Neoplasms of the Thymus
Pathology - Research and Practice, 1988Neuroendocrine tumors of the thymus bear many similarities to "carcinoids" and "oat-cell carcinomas" in other organs, and are clinicopathologically distinct from thymomas, thymic seminomas, and other primary tumors of this gland. They are associated with Cushing's syndrome or multiple endocrine neoplasia in 35% of cases, and are often locally ...

Thoracic (Lung/Thymus) Neuroendocrine Neoplasms
2020Thoracic neuroendocrine neoplasms include pulmonary and thymic tumors. Well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors are currently classified as typical and atypical carcinoids based on mitotic index and presence of necrosis. Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) accounts for 3% or less of all lung cancers, but its prevalence is destined to increase ...

Neoplasms After Childhood Irradiation of the Thymus Gland
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971The oncogenic effects of childhood irradiation of the thymus gland were investigated by following up 466 irradiated subjects, 506 unirradiated subjects with similar illnesses, and the siblings of both series. In the irradiated group there were two malignant and nine benign thyroid neoplasms, indicating an excess risk in this group.

Thymic tumours are among the malignant diseases with very low incidence. Therefore clinical research and development of new treatment options pose an ongoing challenge. For treatment of thymomas the following methods are used: surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted drugs.

Neoplasms After Childhood Irradiation of the Thymus
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971To the Editor:— In the article "Neoplasms After Childhood Irradiation of the Thymus Gland," by Janower and Miettinen (215:753-756, 1971), the authors found a lesser incidence of late neoplasms than others have found. I would like to propose that it was due to the dose received by the infants, which was smaller in the series now presented than in the ...

Neuroendocrine Neoplasms of the Thymus
2015Neoplastic neuroendocrine proliferations of the mediastinum can originate from neuroendocrine cells that are native to the thymus, or they may arise from extra-adrenal paraganglia ectopically located in the mediastinum (i.e., paragangliomas).

American Journal of Clinical Oncology, 1998
In this report, we describe a patient with a thymic carcinoid and the evolution of his disease for the past 5 years. Due to the distinct nature of thymic carcinoids, their unique biologic and endocrine properties, and the variety of available treatment options, it is important to differentiate this entity from other mediastinal tumors.

[Thymus carcinoid in multiple endocrine neoplasms type I].
Deutsche medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 1994Thrombosis of the left subclavian vein occurred in a 44-year-old man. It was found to be caused by an atypical thymus carcinoid of the anterior mediastinum without carcinoid syndrome. Primary resection was not possible, but it was removed after three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with doxorubicin, cisplatin, vincristine and cyclophosphamide ...

[Chinese expert consensus on lung and thymus neuroendocrine neoplasms].
Zhonghua zhong liu za zhi [Chinese journal of oncology], 2021Lung and thymus neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are rare tumors. According to the fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification of thoracic tumors published in 2021, lung and thymus NENs include typical carcinoids, atypical carcinoids, large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas, and small cell carcinomas.
