Transcervical thymectomy has been used in the management of myasthenia gravis for over 20 years. Contraindications to this operation include advanced age, poorly controlled neurologic symptoms, and evidence for a thymoma. The procedure is associated with negligible morbidity and requires only a brief hospitalization. Remission rates are comparable with those reported for more extensive thymectomy operations.
