A Rare Case of Thymic Carcinoma: Unusual Presentation of Multiple Lymph Node Metastases Masquerading as Lymphoproliferative Disorder.

Thymic carcinoma is known for its aggressive nature and low survival rates. Due to the rarity of its presentation, particularly with multiple lymph node metastasis resembling lymphoproliferative disorders, emphasizes the need to share our case in the literature. We aimed to raise awareness among surgeons regarding this atypical presentation. Our findings indicate that, in cases of higher stage thymic carcinoma, lymph node dissection should be considered in addition to thymectomy. This recommendation is based on our research and can help guide treatment decisions for similar cases in the future.
