How is Thymectomy Done?

There are several techniques to perform thymectomy, which are as follows:

  • Robotic thymectomy and video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy (VATS):

Many small incisions in the chest area made with these minimally invasive techniques. From one of the incisions, a camera inserted to perform the surgery with the assistance of video guidance. By using specialized surgical equipment, the thymus is removed by the surgeon. However, the surgeon uses robotic arms to execute the surgery during a robotic-assisted approach. The main goal of this highly invasive transseternal method is to provide faster recovery and the least amount of after-operative discomfort.

  • Transcervical thymectomy:

 the bottom part of the neck, a little above the breastbone (sternum) operation under this procedure. By making small incisions, The surgeon removes the thymus without splitting the sternum. This usually comes into existence for those patients who are without thymoma (definite body types).

  • Transsternal thymectomy: 

The small cuts are being made in the affected skin area just above the breastbone (sternum). And the breastbone split (sternotomy) to uncover the thymus. Heart surgery is usually done with this surgical measure. Through this incision, the thymus gland is separated by the surgeon. Along with any remaining fat present in the middle of the chest removed, which might lead to harbour excess thymic cells. Patients with thymoma are treated with this surgical approach.
