Minimally invasive thymectomy: comparative analysis of short-term outcomes after video-assisted thoracoscopy and two robotic platforms [PDF]
ObjectiveMinimally invasive thymectomy has largely replaced the traditional trans-sternal approach. Among the minimally invasive strategies, video-assisted thoracoscopic and robot-assisted thoracoscopic procedures are the most frequently used.

Many long-term, follow-up studies have shown that steroids are effective in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) who have undergone thymectomy. However, few long-term studies have documented the response of MG to steroids alone.

Thymectomy in Non-Thymomatous Myasthenia Gravis: Does An RCT Solve The 75-Year-Old Controversy?
The role of thymectomy in thymomatous myasthenia gravis (MG) is unambiguous. However, its role in non-thymomatous MG (NTMG) remains debatable. The evidence till date is not robust.

We report the first successful orthotopic engraftment of human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in immunosuppressed microminipigs and demonstrate high‐contrast near‐infrared fluorescence endoscopic detection using EGFR‐targeted cetuximab. This large‐animal model bridges preclinical imaging research and future clinical translation in esophageal cancer.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

ABSTRACT Background Brain metastasis (BM) occurs in < 3% of malignant mesothelioma (MM) cases and is associated with an aggressive disease course. While genomic profiling has provided insight into molecular alterations in MM, the characteristics of MM with brain involvement remain unexplored.

Robotic subxiphoid thymectomy [PDF]
When endoscopic surgery is indicated for myasthenia gravis and thymomas, most institutions use a lateral thoracic approach that includes robot-assisted surgery. However, with the unilateral thoracic approach, it can be difficult to ensure the operative field in the neck and difficult to identify the location of the contralateral phrenic nerve. In 2015,

From Development to Aging: Dynamic Roles of the Thymic Medulla in T Cell Biology
ABSTRACT The thymic medulla is essential for establishing central tolerance, orchestrating the development of a diverse yet self‐tolerant T cell repertoire, and preventing autoimmunity. This process is primarily mediated through interactions between developing thymocytes and antigen‐presenting cells, including thymic epithelial cells (TECs) and ...

Primary Hyperparathyroidism in Adults: Recent Developments in Diagnosis and Management
ABSTRACT Primary hyperparathyroidism has a prevalence of around 1% in the general population. Diagnosis requires biochemical testing of serum (for calcium and parathyroid hormone) and urine (for calcium excretion), as well as wider screening for complications including osteoporosis, renal disease, abdominal symptoms and neuropsychiatric disturbance.
