Subxiphoid VATS thymectomy for myasthenia gravis
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 ...

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.

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 (

Robot‐Assisted Versus Open Surgery for the Resection of Large Thymomas: A Retrospective Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Background Robot‐assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is increasingly becoming the preferred surgical method for the resection of thymomas. We initiated the current study to evaluate perioperative outcomes and early recurrence associated with the surgical approach.

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.
