Subxiphoid VATS thymectomy for myasthenia gravis

open access: yesVideo-Assisted Thoracic Surgery, 2017
In recent years, surgeons have come to use less invasive endoscopic surgical techniques than conventional median sternotomy to perform thymectomy. Endoscopic thymectomy includes the transcervical approach via the neck region, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery via the lateral intercostal space (lateral thoracic intercostal approach), and the ...

Robotic‐Assisted Extended Thymus Carcinoma Resection With Unilateral Total Pleurectomy and Hyperthermic Intrathoracic Chemotherapy (HITOC)

open access: yesCase Reports in Surgery, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Thymic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is an aggressive form of thymic cancer that is often diagnosed at an advanced stage. Hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITOC) is a treatment option for advanced thoracic and especially pleural malignancies, though it is not yet the standard of care.

192 Uniportal Non-Intubated Subxiphoid VATS Thymectomy Compared to Uniportal Intubated Subxiphoid VATS Thymectomy: The Technical Feasibility, Safety, Level of Post-Operative Pain, and Adequacy of Oncological Resection

open access: yesBritish Journal of Surgery, 2022
Abstract Aim Subxiphoid video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SVATS) has been associated with less pain and subsequent opioid requirements. Furthermore, a non-intubated approach reduces sedatives and opioid requirements and may enhance recovery.

Comparison of Subxiphoid and Lateral Intercostal Thoracoscopic Surgery for Anterior Mediastinal Tumors: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, Volume 16, Issue 22, November 2025.
In a matched study of 417 patients per group, LIATS for anterior mediastinal tumors resection had a significantly shorter operative time than SATS (75 ± 34 vs. 112 ± 43 min; p < 0.001), with no difference in postoperative pain. ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the short‐term clinical outcomes of subxiphoid approach thoracoscopic surgery (

Predictive Value of Perioperative Blood Lactic Acid Levels for Postoperative Crisis in Myasthenia Gravis Patients Undergoing Thymectomy

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 71, Issue 6, Page 963-971, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Postoperative myasthenic crisis (POMC), which occurs specifically after thymectomy in myasthenia gravis (MG) patients, is a serious complication with known risk factors such as prior myasthenic crisis. However, the predictive value of perioperative blood lactic acid levels (BLAL) for POMC remains unclear.
