Context: General Information About Thymoma and Thymic Carcinoma Treatment
Most patients with thymoma or thymic carcinoma are asymptomatic at diagnosis.[23] About one-third of patients present with symptoms that arise either from the underlying tumor or from the presence of associated autoimmune paraneoplastic diseases. Typical clinical signs and symptoms include cough, dyspnea, chest pain, hoarseness of voice, phrenic nerve palsy, or signs suggestive of superior vena cava syndrome.[24]
