Magnesium sulfate reduces the rocuronium dose needed for satisfactory double lumen tube placement conditions in patients with myasthenia gravis

BMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background Using a minimum dose of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) to achieve intubation condition is one of the goals in anaesthesia management of patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) for thoracoscopic (VATS) thymectomy.

Technique for Myasthenia Gravis: Subxiphoid Approach. [PDF]

, 2019
Kido and colleagues in 1999 used for the first time the subxiphoid approach. Recently, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) thymectomy has been improved for the advancement of surgical materials and new instruments.

Clinical application of standardization right thoracic incision for thoracoscopic thymic tumor resection

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background With the continuous development of minimally invasive thoracic surgery, thoracoscopic thymectomy has become a routine operation. This method, now widely recognized, better protects lung function, reduces intraoperative blood loss and pain, and

Margin-negative resection and long-term survival following robot-assisted thymectomy for thymoma: A tumor size stratified analysisCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open
Objective: Although open thymectomy has traditionally been the gold standard for resection of large thymic tumors, growing evidence has suggested minimally invasive thymectomy to confer comparable survival. However, the influence of incremental increases

Video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy.

Annals of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery : official journal of the Association of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeons of Asia, 1999
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) provides a new, alternative approach to thymectomy and has several advantages over the other established techniques. However, even among surgeons using this approach, there are differences in the actual technique. We prefer the right approach using conventional instruments.
