Thymectomy is virtually useless and unecessary. Why go through the misery of getting cut from neck to belly, having your sternum "cracked," as they say, for the slim liklihood you will see a slight benefit? Makes no sense. I'm an expert in MG, having gone through the pits of hell with it. Lingered near death for a week in a coma with it. Couldn't talk, eat, walk or anything at times, but determination and prednisone got me through it.
Unless you have a malignancy, keep your thymus right where it is!
