 The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of an ultrasonically activated device, “SonoSurgTM”(SS), in video-assisted endoscopic thymectomy for diseases or tumors originating in the thymus. Results in 44 consecutive patients(mean age, 39 years old ; female : male, 29 : 15 ; myasthenia gravis, 28 patient)who underwent endoscopic thymectomy using SS were evaluated with regard to the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and duration of the postoperative chest drainage. Patients with myasthenia gravis(MG)and those without MG underwent extended thymectomy(ET)and partial thymectomy(PT), respectively, with both procedures completed endoscopically in all cases. The mean operation time was 154 versus 121 minutes, and the mean blood loss was 60g versus 16g for ET and PT, respectively. The median duration of drainage was 1 day in both groups. Both the operation time and the blood loss were significantly decreased in our patients treated with SS as compared to those treated with another device we used to employ, although there were differences in the degree of experiences of the same surgeon and the clinical backgrounds of the patients between the two groups. Our findings suggest that SS is useful in endoscopic thymectomy and might contribute to establishing management of endoscopic mediastinal surgery.
