Comparison of thymic histology with response to thymectomy in myasthenia gravis.

J M Vetters, J A Simpson.   

Abstract

Fifty-four thymus glands removed surgically from patients with myasthenia gravis were examined using an accurate morphometric technique and the data compared with the response to thymectomy. There is a tendency for patients with relatively unreactive thymus glands to obtain a better result from thymectomy but this is not statistically significant.
