Clinical Outcome of Juvenile Myasthenia Gravis After Extended Transsternal Thymectomy in a Chinese Cohort

Extended transsternal thymectomy for Chinese juvenile MG patients has an efficacy comparable with reports from other ethnicities. Juvenile patients with disease-onset age greater than 6 years, age at operation greater than 12 years, and shorter disease duration of generalized MG are associated with favorable clinical outcomes.
