Abstract
Pleuropneumonectomy can be performed safely in patients with advanced thymomas and may improve survival. Highly selected patients might be cured with this approach if a complete resection is performed. While the optimal multimodality strategy for these patients is unknown, induction chemotherapy followed by resection then chemoradiotherapy seems promising.
