2 FIGURE 1 Kaplan-Meier curves of overall survival and recurrence-free survival with confidence intervals (dotted line) of patients with Masaoka stage III thymomas (n = 59).

3 FIGURE 2 Kaplan-Meier curve of overall survival by the WHO classification (A), completeness of resection (B). R0: complete resection with negative microscopic margins; R1: incomplete resection on microscopic examination (R1); and R2: macroscopically incomplete resection.

4 FIGURE 3 Kaplan-Meier curve of recurrence-free survival by size (A), WHO classification (B), number of organs invaded (C), and pericardium invasion (D).

5 FIGURE 4 Kaplan-Meier curve for overall survival and recurrence-free survival of groups A and B. Group A (limited invasion group, single organ invasion + two organs invaded, and tumor less than 6.5 cm); group B (extensive invasion group, two organs invaded, and tumor 6.5 cm or larger + ≥ three organs invaded). Panel A (R0 resection) and panel B (R0 + R1 resection).
