Thymic epithelial tumor (TET) is a rare type of tumor that arises from the glandular cells of the thymus, the organ responsible for the development and maturation of T-lymphocytes, key cells of the immune system. These tumors can be either benign or malignant, with the latter being the most dangerous and difficult to manage clinically. The main signs of the disease may include symptoms of pressure on adjacent structures, such as cough, difficulty breathing, chest pain, and distension behind the breastbone. Thymic epithelial tumor has a variety of morphological forms, the most well-known of which are thymomas and myxomas, each of which requires a special approach to diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>\n
