Two atypical epithelial thymomas were identified in female Han: SPRD rats. These neoplasms featured distinct epithelial nests and islands, with one case showing lymph vessel invasion.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Pathology
  • Oncology
  • Rodent Models

Background:

  • Thymomas are neoplasms originating from thymic epithelial cells.
  • Atypical thymomas represent a distinct histological subtype with potential for local invasion.
  • Han: SPRD rats serve as a valuable model for studying spontaneous neoplasms.

Observation:

  • Two cases of atypical epithelial thymoma were observed in female Han: SPRD rats.
  • Histopathological examination revealed well-circumscribed nests and islands of neoplastic epithelial cells.
  • One tumor exhibited evidence of local invasion into adjacent lymph vessels.

Findings:

  • The study describes the unique histopathological characteristics of these two atypical epithelial thymomas.
  • The findings highlight the presence of distinct epithelial structures within the neoplasms.

  • Local lymphovascular invasion was noted in one of the observed thymomas.

    • Implications:

    • This case report contributes to the understanding of thymoma occurrence and behavior in Han: SPRD rats.
    • The identification of lymphovascular invasion underscores the importance of thorough histopathological evaluation for accurate prognostication.
    • Further research into spontaneous thymomas in rodent models can enhance comparative oncology insights.
