Radiological features and metastatic patterns of thymic neuroendocrine tumours
Clinical Radiology Jan 11, 2018
Araki T, et al. - In this work, the clinical and image features of thymic neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) were investigated, and the radiological patterns of recurrence and metastasis on serial imaging studies were characterized. As per observations, thymic NETs presented as a large, lobulate, heterogeneous mass with an infiltrative nature. Researchers identified metastasis and recurrence very frequently on serial imaging studies, most commonly involving thoracic lymph nodes, pericardium, pleura, and lungs, while extra-thoracic metastases to bones and abdominal lymph nodes were also noted.
