Traditionally, thymectomy for myasthenia gravis has been performed using either a transcervical approach or a median sternotomy. However, excision of the thymic tissue by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is less aggressive and recovery is faster. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness and outcomes of video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy. Over the past 10 years, we have performed 25 video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomies on patients with myasthenia gravis at our unit. This study included 16 women and 9 men, with a mean age of 48.1 years (range, 14-74 years). Right-side (22 cases) or left-side (3 cases) thoracoscopic surgery was performed, with a mean intervention time of 110 minutes (range, 60-193 minutes). No patient required assisted ventilation for more than 4 hours and the maximum stay in intensive care was less than 24 hours. Complications from surgery included 3 cases of contralateral pneumothorax, 1 pleural effusion, and 2 intraoperative hemorrhages from the thymic vein, all of which were resolved by video-assisted thoracoscopy. Likewise, 3 cases required conversion (due to hemorrhaging in 2 patients and technical difficulties in 1) and 2 required a second thoracoscopic intervention. No deaths occurred and clinical outcome was excellent in 11 cases (medical treatment no longer required), good in 10 (reduced medical treatment), and poor in 4 (no changes). Video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy is effective in the treatment of myasthenia gravis and improves patient recovery. In addition, the excellent surgical view allows the thymectomy to be performed with absolute safety.
