Abstract
We present a report of trans-arterial infusion chemotherapy through the intercostal arteries and subphrenic artery for pleural dissemination of recurrent thymoma after thymectomy. The disseminated tumor did not enlarge for more than a year after this treatment, and there were no side effects. Trans-arterial infusion chemotherapy appears to be a preferable procedure for pleural dissemination of thymoma.Entities:
