Computer tomography of the anterior mediastinum in patients with myasthenia gravis and suspected thymoma

JH Mink, ME Bein, R Sukov, C Herrmann Jr, J Winter, WF Sample, and D Mulder

Six patients with myasthenia gravis and suspected thymoma underwent radiologic investigation using plain chest radiography, conventional anterior mediastinal tomography, and computed tomography. All underwent exploratory thoractomy within 1 month of the radiologic workup. In three of the five cases that proved to be thymoma, CT yielded significant diagnostic information that bore directly on the management and/or prognosis of the patient. We therefore believe that CT may be a valuable adjunct in the radiologic investigation of the patient with myasthenia gravis.
