What are the statistics on thymectomy outcomes; ie: full remission, partial medicated remission, no response etc.?
There are no good data on thymectomy. The largest trial was done out of Duke University in the 1970′s and suggested that after thymectomy MG is easier to control. But there are no data on number of remissions, cures etc. In general in young healthy people with generalized myasthenia we believe the benefits are greater than the risks. There is a large trial getting started to ask this question.
