Heterogeneity in thymic emigrants: implications for thymectomy and immunosenescence. [PDF]
The development of mature, antigen-inexperienced (naive) T cells begins in the thymus and continues after export into the periphery. Post-thymic maturation of naive T cells, in humans, coincides with the progressive loss of markers such as protein ...

Thymectomy for myasthenia gravis [PDF]
Between 1951 and 1971 thymectomy was performed on 41 patients with myasthenia gravis. They were selected from a total group of 95 myasthenic patients receiving anticholinesterase therapy. The criteria for selecting patients for thymectomy and the assessment of their progress after operation are described.

Subxiphoid approach for robotic single-site-assisted thymectomy.
OBJECTIVES We previously reported a transthoracic approach using the da Vinci Single-Site⢠platform. This study describes the outcomes of robotic single-site thymectomy via a subxiphoid approach based on our previous experiences.
