Introduction

Our highly skilled team of doctors and plastic surgeons is dedicated to providing the highest level of care and achieving outstanding results for our patients.

Understanding Myasthenia Gravis

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease that causes weakness in the skeletal muscles, primarily those involved in voluntary movements. It occurs when the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction.

Thymus surgery, also known as thymectomy, is a treatment option for patients with myasthenia gravis. The thymus gland, located in the upper chest region, plays a role in the development of the immune system. Removing the thymus gland can help improve symptoms and potentially achieve remission in some cases.

Benefits of Thymus Surgery

• Reduction in symptoms: Thymus surgery has been shown to significantly reduce the severity and frequency of myasthenia gravis symptoms. Patients often experience improved muscle strength and stamina.
• Possible remission: For some patients, thymus surgery can lead to remission, where the symptoms of myasthenia gravis disappear completely.
• Reduced medication dependency: Thymectomy can allow patients to decrease their reliance on medication, such as immunosuppressants and corticosteroids, which may have side effects.
• Improved quality of life: Managing myasthenia gravis symptoms can be challenging, but thymus surgery can provide long-term relief, leading to a better overall quality of life.
