    Robotic surgery is characterized by a progressive enhancement of its application in the thoracic field, notably regarding the management of mediastinal lesions. The most common robotic mediastinal procedure reported in scientific literature is thymectomy, which is indicated in this case, of Myasthenia gravis or thymoma (1). Thymoma is a rare thymic tumor with a heterogenous behavior. It requires…

    Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare autoimmune disorder affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). Here, we investigate the genetic architecture of MG via a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of the largest MG data set analysed to date. Methods We performed GWAS meta-analysis integrating three different data sets (total of 1401 cases and 3508 controls). We carried out human leucocyte…

    Objectives To determine whether the available operative techniques for thymectomy in myasthenia gravis (MG) confer variable chances for achieving complete stable remission (CSR), we performed a meta-analysis of comparative studies of surgical approaches to thymectomy. Methods Meta-analysis was done of all studies providing comparative data on thymectomy approaches, with CSR reported and minimum…
