==Overview==
Treatment for mediastinal tumors depends on the type of tumor.
*For '''thymic cancers''', surgery is the treatment of choice. It may be followed by radiation or chemotherapy, depending on the stage of the tumor and the success of the surgery.
*For '''lymphomas''', chemotherapy followed by radiation is the treatment of choice.
*For '''neurogenic tumors''' of the posterior mediastinum, surgery is the treatment of choice.
