Thymectomy: Symptoms, Classification, Diagnosis & Recovery

Thymectomy is the surgical removal of the thymus gland. It is commonly used to treat thymic malignancies (such as thymomas) or myasthenia gravis, an autoimmune condition.

A thymectomy is a procedure that removes the thymus gland and thymic tumors.

The thymus is a tiny gland in the upper chest beneath the breastbone that plays an essential role in immune system development, particularly throughout childhood.
