Unilocular and multilocular thymic cysts: A study on the possible histomorphological and/or clinical differences

Objective: Thymic cysts are rare mediastinal cystic pathologies and have two subtypes namely unilocular multilocular. This study aims to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of thymic compare clinical histopathologic features multilocular (MTCs) (UTCs). Patients Methods: Twenty-three patients with diagnosis cyst between 2012 2020 were included. We compared cysts. Results: The mean age was 43 years, ranging from 6 80 years. Fourteen cases UTCs 9 MTCs. MTCs found be statistically more common in younger patients, much histomorphological changes pointing complicated (p<0.05). Moreover, we noted that symptomatic before diagnosis. Furthermore, our when UTCs, slightly (64.2%) frequent female patients. Conclusion: According results, may also seen at ages. MTC UTC can different characteristics, such as foreign body reaction hemorrhage. there features, age, gender, symptoms, these subtypes.
