Eligibility Criteria
Thymoma and thymic carcinoma patients will be retrospectively analyzed. Patients will be selected based on the availability of tumor tissue.
You may qualify if:
- Availability of tumor tissue and patients with thymoma and thymic carcinoma
You may not qualify if:
- NON Availability of tumor tissue and patients with thymoma and thymic carcinoma
