ABSTRACT
Thymoma is a rare tumor with little evidence available to guide its treatment. A few systematic reviews of the literature have been performed in recent years and the following treatment recommendations have been developed. For early stage patients, complete resection of the entire thymus should be performed without post-operative chemotherapy and radiation therapy;however, for high-risk tumors, adjuvant radiation should be considered to reduce recurrence. For locally advanced patients, surgery combined with pre- or post-operative chemoradiotherapy are recommended.
