  • Comparison of inflammatory reaction for patients with thymomas and myasthenia gravis treated by traditional thoracotomy or minimally invasive surgery

    Objective To investigate the effects of inflammatory reaction of thymomas with myasthenia gravis (MG) treated by traditional thoracotomy and minimally invasive surgery. Methods A total of 40 thymomas patients (Mssaoka Ⅰ or Ⅱ) with myasthenia gravis from August 2014 to June 2015 were treated by traditional thoracotomy (n=20) or video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (n=20). The serum levels of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, CRP and CORT were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods at before anesthesia (T1), after anesthesia (T2), 2 h after skin cut (T3), 24 h post-operation (T4), 48 h post-operation (T5) and 72 h post-operation (T6) respectively. Perioperative parameters were also reported. The statistics analysis was performed by SPSS 17.0 software. Results The serum levels of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, CRP and CORT had no significant difference between T1 and T2, T2 and T3 (allP value>0.05) in both groups. But the serum levels of these factors after operation were obviously higher than that of before operation, commonly the highest level was reached at T4 (allP value>0.01), and also was higher at T6 than that of before the operation (allP value<0.01), except the level of TNF-α recovered rapidly to the level of before operation (allP value>0.05) in the VATS group. The operation time, postoperative drainage tube indwelling time and incision healing time in the VATS were lower than that in the control group (allP value<0.05). Conclusion VATS could be widely applied in clinical practice with lowering operative trauma and reducing the degree of inflammatory reaction.
