Özet
Amaç: Myastenia gravis hastalarının tedavisinde timektominin etkinliği tartışmalıdır. Bu çalışmada myastenia graviste uzun dönem takip sonuçlarına göre timektomi etkinliğinin araştırılması amaçlandı.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Ocak 1995 ile Ocak 2004 arasında myastenia gravis nedeniyle sternotomi ve ekstended timektomi uygulanan 27 hastanın birinci ve beşinci yıllardaki klinik sonuçları istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Hastaların postoperatif birinci ve beşinci yıllardaki klinik sonuçları arasında istatistiksel fark saptanmadı.Sonuçlar: Uzun dönem sonuçlarının iyi olması nedeniyle timektomi myastenia gravis tedavisinde güvenilir bir yöntemdir. Timektomi sonrası birinci ve beşinci yıllar sonunda elde edilen sonuçlar arasında farklılık yoktur
Aim: The efficiency of thymectomy for treating patients with Myasthenia gravis is a controversial issue. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the efficiency of thymectomy in the treatment of myasthenia gravis based on long-term follow-up results.Material and Methods: The first and fifth year clinical outcomes of 27 patients who had undergone median sternotomy and extended thymectomy for myasthenia gravis between January 1995 and January 2004 were compared statistically.Results: No statistically significant differences were found between the postoperative first and fifth year clinical outcomes of the patients.Conclusions: Thymectomy is a reliable method in the treatment of myasthenia gravis with respect to its long-term outcomes. The outcomes obtained at the end of the first and fifth year of thymectomy are not different
