- W2906469876 abstract "Objective: To evaluate transcervical and transsternal thymectomy benefits in large myasthenia gravis (MG) cohort.Method: We retrospectively evaluated MG patients (n = 184) who had undergone thymectomy between 2004 and 2015 at National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences, Bangalore (India). Myasthenia gravis foundation of America guidelines were followed to assess clinical outcome. Anti-acetylcholine receptors (AChR) antibodies, repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) and Neostigmine tests were performed at pre and post-thymectomy stage.Results: Most of the patients were fell under MG grade IIA (82 of 184, 44.56%) and grade IIB (61 of 184, 33.15%). Thymoma and thymic hyperplasia was established in 64 (34.78%) and 89 (48.37%) patients respectively. Other thymic abnormalities such thymic atrophy, cysts and lipoma were established in 31 (16.85%) patients. MG patients were treated either with transcervical (n = 79) or (n = 105) transsternal thymectomy. At the pre-thymectomy stage, the majority of the patients were positive for anti-AChR antibodies (179 of 184, 97.28%), RNS (170 of 184, 92.4%), and Neostigmine (175 of 184, 95.11%). At the post-thymectomy stage, a significant reduction observed in anti-AChR antibodies positivity (p < 0.022) and RNS positivity (p < 0.015). Overall, benefits were observed in 61.41% (113 of 184) of patients. Clinical benefits (complete stable remission, pharmacological remission, minimal manifestation, and improvement) of transcervical and transsternal thymectomy observed in 69.62% (55 of 79) and 55.24% (58 of 105) of patients respectively. MG patients with thymoma showed the least improvement compared to thymic hyperplasia.Discussion: Transcervical and transsternal thymectomy showed clinical benefits, however, there was no significant difference between them." @default.
