【 摘 要 】

Thymoma is a potential malignant disease with a recurrence rate of 10% to 30% after complete resection. There is no agreement on the treatment strategy and standard for recurrent thymoma.

In this article, we review the previous literature and summarize the indications, efficacy and prognosis of different treatments for recurrent thymoma, so as to provide some reference for treatment criteria for recurrent thymoma.
