A series of 85 thymis biopsies and specimens from thymectomies were re-examined. Forty-five of these were taken from patients with myasthenia gravis. A relatively low frequency of thymitis (57%) was found in these patients, while the frequency of thymoma (9%) was as expected. Two cases of thymitis in thyrotoxicosis were included in the material. In all, 22 thymomas of various kinds (18% of the total material) were diagnosed. A fairly low proportion of these thymomas (18%) were from patients with myasthenia gravis.
对85份胸腺活检样本和胸腺切除术标本进行了重新检查。其中45份取自重症肌无力患者。这些患者中胸腺炎的发生率相对较低（57%），而胸腺瘤的发生率（9%）与预期相符。材料中包含2例甲状腺毒症合并胸腺炎的病例。总共诊断出22例不同类型的胸腺瘤（占全部材料的18%）。这些胸腺瘤中相当低比例（18%）来自重症肌无力患者。
