胸腔镜入路和胸骨正中入路胸腺扩大切除术治疗重症肌无力的对照研究

目的 通过比较胸腔镜入路和胸骨正中入路胸腺扩大切除术治疗重症肌无力,探讨胸腔镜胸腺扩大切除术的临床应用价值.方法 2007年2～10月,行胸腔镜胸腺扩大切除术20例,同期行胸骨正中人路胸腺扩大切除术32例;胸腔镜组采用右侧胸腔三孔法,胸骨正中入路组则完全切开胸骨,两组病人均切除胸腺和清扫前纵隔脂肪组织.结果 胸腔镜组与胸骨正中入路组比较,手术时间延长,术中失血量减少,术后不必使用镇痛药物,术后入住ICU比例非常低,这些结果之间的差异有统计学意义(P<0.05):而在术后气管导管拔管时间、ICU监护时间、术后住院天数、总住院天数、术后并发症、总住院费用和缓解好转率等方面的差异无统计学意义(P>0.05).结论 胸腔镜与传统胸骨正中切口胸腺切除术比较,手术切口小,体内无残留金属异物,术后疼痛轻,恢复快,手术中远期效果无差异,值得推广.

Video-assisted thoracoscopic extended thymectomy and transsternal extended thymectomy for treatment of myasthenia gravis:a case-control study

Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of video-assisted thoracoscopic extended thymectomy (VATET) and transsternal extended thymectomy (TET) for myasthenia gravis (MG). Methods This study included 21 patients undergoing VATET through the three holes approach on the right chest and 32 undergoing TET with sternum dissection. The thymus was excised and the anterior mediastinum adipose tissue removed in both groups. Results VATET was associated with reduced intraoperative blood loss and longer operative ...
