Brief Summary

the World Health Organization (WHO) has proposed a classification of histopathological thymic tumor and it significance in prognosis. Chest computed tomography (CT) is the most common method to evaluate thymic epithelial tumors before operation. Therefore, the question is to predict the histopathological type of thymic epithelial tumors before surgery based on CT-scan images , to help determine treatment strategy and prognosis. In Vietnam, there are no published literature on this issue.

Conditions

Thymoma

Keywords

Computed tomography; thymic epithelial tumors

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• maximun diameter of the tumor

  Measure the maximun diameter of the tumor in chest CT scan

  1 month

Study Arms (1)

CT and histopathological classification

EXPERIMENTAL

With each histopathological type of thymic epithelial tumors, we measure the maximun diameter in chest CT scan. Comparison of some characteristics of the tumor on preoperative chest CT scans and histopathological type of thymic epithelial tumors .

Other: CT and histopathological classification

Interventions

CT and histopathological classification OTHER

Cross-sectional descriptive study on 53 patients with diagnosed of thymoma by CT and had postoperative histopathology results as thymic epithelial tumors. Base on the characteristics in Chest CT scan in each postoperative histopathology results.
