Abstract

The rare form of thymic cancer demonstrates high aggressiveness in its behavior. A 55-year-old male patient with stage III thymic carcinoma received extensive surgical treatment followed by cisplatin-etoposide chemotherapy. The patient received optimal treatment from three medical disciplines composed of surgical teams alongside radiation specialists and medical oncologists. Follow-up monitoring should continue indefinitely because thymic carcinoma exhibits aggressive characteristics. The treatment of advanced thymic carcinoma requires multiple treatment modalities which demonstrates their importance in this case.
