recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Diagnostic Cytopathology"

DOI: 10.1002/dc.25075

Abstract: B3 thymoma is a rare malignant type of thymic epithelial neoplasm found in the anterior mediastinum. Diagnosis of thymoma from fine needle aspiration (FNA) can be challenging due to the infrequency of sampling and its… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/gcc.70071

Abstract: Mastermind‐like transcriptional coactivator (MAML) gene fusions have been documented in Thymic Epithelial Tumors (TETs). Specifically, lysine methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A)::MAML2 gene fusions are associated with type B2 and B3 thymomas. Here, we report for the first… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11748-020-01362-x

Abstract: We herein report two cases of Masaoka stage IVa thymoma treated by radical resection via thymothymectomy followed by pleurectomy/decortication (PD). Case 1: a 52-year-old man was diagnosed with a type B1 thymoma. Resection of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102859

Abstract: Introduction Thymoma is an epithelial tumor that commonly lies in the anterior mediastinum. It rarely extends to the pleural cavities. There is no standard approach for resecting similar giant thymomas. Case presentation An eighteen-year-old woman… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.hemonc.2017.09.001

Abstract: Association of pure red-cell aplasia with thymoma is well documented. However, acquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (AAMT) has been rarely associated with thymoma with only five reported cases in literature. We report a patient with thymoma complicated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ajcp/aqaf121.382

Abstract: Thymomas are very rare, with an incidence of 1.5 cases/million-population. Despite their indolent nature, thymomas harbor malignant potential, and their behavior correlates with the stage at presentation. Treatment is primarily surgical, with ∼10% of tumors… read more here.
