Thymectomy via parasternal approach in patients with miasthenia
https://doi.org/10.24884/0042-4625-2021-180-2-50--56
Abstract
A new approach for thymectomy in case of mediastinal shifting is proposed. Parasternal access provides optimal conditions for performing an adequate thymectomy, does not require single lung ventilation and could be used after previously performed pneumonectomy.
