In the course of thymectomy of patients with myasthenia gravis, surprising data concerning the recovery or considerable improvement of other immune disorders have been observed. Among these disorders rheumatoid arthritis figured in six instances, immune thrombocytopenia in two cases, polymyositis and psoriasis in one case each. Thymectomy as a powerful immunosuppressive procedure may have a role in the therapeutic management of some immune disorders other than myasthenia gravis.
在重症肌无力患者胸腺切除术中，观察到了关于其他免疫疾病恢复或显著改善的惊人数据。在这些疾病中，类风湿性关节炎出现了6例，免疫性血小板减少症出现了2例，多发性肌炎和银屑病各出现了1例。胸腺切除术作为一种强大的免疫抑制程序，可能在重症肌无力以外的某些免疫疾病的治疗管理中发挥作用。
