Thoracoscopic thymectomy using a left-side approach.

Etienne Abdelnour-Berchtold1, Jean Perentes2, Thorsten Krueger3, Michel Gonzalez4.   

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.
