[Myasthenia gravis: perioperative complications of 1002 transsternal thymectomies - historical overwiev of 34 years long practice at one institution].

Conclusions: In a historical overview, the ratio of serious respiratory and airway complications and the mortality after transsternal thymectomies has considerably decreased, but the postoperative respiratory failure and the surgical risk of transsecting the sternum still pose a real risk.
