• A multilobulated thymoma with at least one acute angle between lobulations is predictive of lung invasion. • Coronal and sagittal reformations and thin sections are helpful in challenging cases. • Lung invasion indicates a locally aggressive tumor, and the pleura and other mediastinal structures should also be closely inspected for invasion.
