Introduction: Epithelial thymic tumours (ETT), comprise the majority of thymomas and are neoplasms
arising from the epithelial thymuic cells and constitute 30% of anterior mediastinal
masses in adults. These tumours present a broad spectrum of clinical and morphological
characteristics and the small series of known patients makes establishing a standard
treatment difficult. This study aims to analyse the clinicopathological characteristics
of thymomas encountered in a single Thoracic Surgical unit.
