胸腺瘤诊断革新及治疗策略的演进

Innovations in Thymoma Diagnosis and Evolution of Treatment Strategies

  • 摘要: 胸腺上皮肿瘤(TETs)是前纵隔最常见的原发性肿瘤,具有高度的生物学异质性。其发病率呈现地域性差异,且常合并重症肌无力(MG)等自身免疫性疾病,显著增加了临床管理的复杂性。当前TETs的诊疗主要基于Masaoka-Koga(M-K)分期和WHO组织学分型所构建的传统体系,然而该体系在观察者间一致性、精准预后评估及微小病灶检测方面存在显著局限。近年来,影像组学与液体活检等新兴技术的涌现正推动TETs诊疗模式向精准化与定量化转型:影像组学通过高通量提取CT/MRI影像特征,实现了对肿瘤的无创风险分层与预后预测,液体活检则为分子水平的动态监测提供了新途径。在治疗方面,外科手术仍是可切除TETs的根治性手段。微创手术在可切除TETs中已达到与开放手术相当的肿瘤学疗效,并具有更优的围手术期结局与康复质量。对于局部进展期或高级别TETs,以多学科协作(MDT)为基础的个体化综合治疗策略已成为核心,涵盖新辅助/辅助放化疗、分子分型指导的靶向治疗以及免疫治疗。未来的研究应致力于整合多组学数据与临床信息,进一步构建和优化TETs的精准诊疗体系。

     

    Abstract: Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) are the most common primary tumors in the anterior mediastinum. They are characterized by a high degree of biological heterogeneity. The incidence of TETs varies geographically and is frequently associated with autoimmune diseases, such as myasthenia gravis, significantly increasing the complexity of clinical management. At present, the diagnosis and treatment of TETs are primarily based on a traditional system constructed using the Masaoka–Koga staging system and the histological classification of the World Health Organization. However, this system exhibits significant limitations in interobserver consistency, accurate prognosis assessment, and microscopic lesion detection. In recent years, the emergence of developing technologies, such as radiomics and liquid biopsy, has driven the transformation of TET diagnosis and treatment model toward precision and quantification. Radiomics enables the noninvasive risk stratification and prognosis prediction of tumors through the high-throughput extraction of CT/MRI image features, while liquid biopsy provides a new approach for dynamic monitoring at the molecular level. In terms of treatment, surgical resection remains the radical treatment for resectable TETs. Minimally invasive surgery has achieved oncology outcomes comparable with those of open surgery in resectable TETs, with better perioperative outcomes and recovery quality. For locally advanced or high-grade TETs, an individualized comprehensive treatment strategy based on a multidisciplinary team has become the core. Such strategy includes neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, targeted therapy guided by molecular typing, and immunotherapy. Future research should focus on integrating multiomics data and clinical information to further construct and optimize the precision diagnosis and treatment system for TETs.
