lymphomas, thymic epithelial neoplasms, other thymic lesions such as thymic cysts and thymic hyperplasia, benign teratomas, and thyroid goiters.

Clinically, thymic epithelial neoplasms may be discovered incidentally in the evaluation of other diseases, during the investigation of paraneoplastic syndromes, or in the evaluation of patients with signs and symptoms related to local invasion. |
