Overall survival and progression-free survival were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method, comparing the complete resection group ( n\u2009=\u2009141) with the incomplete resection group ( n\u2009=\u200915). Potentially relevant factors for overall survival and progression-free survival in patients with incompletely resected thymomas were analyzed using Cox proportional-hazard models.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>there was a significant difference in progression-free survival ( p\u2009=\u20090.0012) but not in overall survival ( p\u2009=\u20090.638) following thymectomy in the complete and incomplete resection groups. Adjuvant chemotherapy was performed in 6 (40%) patients and adjuvant radiotherapy in 6 (40%) in the incomplete resection group. In univariate analysis, younger age ( p\u2009=\u20090.073) showed a tendency for better overall survival, and adjuvant chemotherapy ( p\u2009=\u20090.071) showed a tendency for better progression-free survival.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>our results suggest that patients with incompletely resected thymomas can achieve comparable overall survival to those with completely resected thymomas.
