Özet

Objective: Thymic cysts are rare mediastinal cystic pathologies and have two subtypes namely unilocular and multilocular. This study aims to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of thymic cysts and to compare the clinical and histopathologic features of multilocular thymic cysts (MTCs) and unilocular thymic cysts (UTCs).
