Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Thymic tumors are a rare entity that can be considered a complex disease. They have recently attracted increasing interest in the scientific community. This Special Issue synthesizes the latest findings on the surgical and oncological landscape, highlighting key advances in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. We focus on emerging biomarkers, the role of surgery and the implications of new systemic treatment. Additionally, we discuss the potential of new advanced imaging techniques in refining diagnosis and treatment strategies. By exploring these recent insights, we aim to shed light on the clinical relevance and therapeutic potential of thymic tumors.
