Abstract
The surgical treatment of myasthenia gravis involves the complete resection of the thymus and the mediastinal fat between the two phrenic nerves. This procedure has been shown to have a positive impact on the rate of remission. In this video tutorial we illustrate the technical aspects of radical thymectomy using a left thoracoscopic approach.Entities:
