During a mean follow-up of 128.67\u2009\u00b1\u20097.95 months, regional recurrence of thymoma was observed in 9 (14.5%) patients. Overall 5- and 10-year survival rates were 85.36% and 78.20%, respectively. The 5- and 10-year survival rates in patients aged\u2009&lt;\u200950 years were significantly better than in those aged\u2009\u2265\u200950 years (92% and 72% vs. 88% and 39%, p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001).

The 10-year survival of patients with World Health Organization histological type A, AB, and B1 thymomas was better than those with type B2 and B3 (log-rank test p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001).
