    Glossary Thymoma

    type of tumor originating from thymus gland in chest

    Thymoma is a type of tumor originating from the thymus gland, which is located in the chest just above the heart. It is often associated with autoimmune conditions like myasthenia gravis and can be either benign or malignant. While thymomas are relatively rare, they can cause symptoms such as chest pain, cough, and difficulty breathing due to their location.
