- W3116012059 abstract "INTRODUCTION Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease characterized by excessive and intense weakness of both respiratory and skeletal muscles. Management of MG involves both medical and surgical treatment. The surgical management includes resection of the thymus gland by many approaches, either bilateral thoracoscopic maximal thymectomy (BTT) or trans-sternal maximal thymectomy (TS). We hypothesized that bilateral thoracoscopic maximal thymectomy is as effective as trans-sternal maximal thymectomy to treat and control the disease. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the two approaches (BTT and TS) and determine which is better in terms of outcomes. METHODOLOGY A retrospective cohort study was conducted among 50 myasthenia gravies patients; 30 patients underwent bilateral thoracoscopic maximal thymectomy (BTT) and 20 were operated by trans-sternal maximal thymectomy (TS). The study was conducted at King Khalid University Hospital (KKUH), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between 2007 and 2017. RESULT The mean age of the MG patients was 32.6 years, ranging from 14 to 75. Thirty-four (68%) patients were females, and 16 (32%) were males. The BTT showed less operation time (P<0.0001) and less intubation time (anesthesia time), which was statistically significant (P<0.0001). Hospital stay and ICU stay were both reported to be less in BTT (4.03 and 0.37, respectively) with p-values of 0.006 and 0.0001, respectively. There was no significant association between all categorical study variables and the MG patients' outcome (BTT/TS) in terms of mortality, morbidity, complete stable remission, pharmacological remission, and complications. CONCLUSION Bilateral thoracoscopic maximal thymectomy is as effective as trans-sternal maximal thymectomy to control and treat the disease." @default.
