| pubmed-article:1472798 | pubmed:abstractText | An 18-year-old girl with invasive thymoma and pleural dissemination underwent a complete removal of the tumor with combined resection of the pericardium and a panpleuropneumonectomy of the left lung. At the time of writing, 70 months later, she was doing well under the classification of grade I performance status with no signs of recurrence. Thus, complete surgical removal of this tumor can prolong the survival time of patients with invasive thymoma and pleural dissemination. | lld:pubmed |
