1 Modified Maximal Thymectomy for Myasthenia Gravis: Effect of Maximal Resection on Late Neurologic Outcome and Predictors of Disease Remission  Christos Prokakis, MD, Efstratios Koletsis, MD, PhD, Stavroula Salakou, MD, PhD, Efstratios Apostolakis, MD, PhD, Nikolaos Baltayiannis, MD, Antonios Chatzimichalis, MD, Theodoros Papapetropoulos, MD, PhD, Dimitrios Dougenis, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 88, Issue 5, Pages (November 2009) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2009 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Complete stable remission (CSR) is shown for the total cohort, with vertical ticks designating censored patients. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2009 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Complete stable remission (CSR) is shown in thymoma patients (dashed line) compared with nonthymoma patients (solid line). Censored thymoma patients are designated by vertical ticks and censored nonthymoma patients by triangles.

4 Fig 3 The effect of steroid treatment (dashed line) and no steroid treatment (solid line) is shown on complete stable remission (CSR). Steroid-censored patients are designated by vertical ticks and nonsteroid-censored patients by triangles.

5 Fig 4 Complete stable remission (CSR) in thymoma patients is shown according to the World Health Organization (WHO) histologic classification of thymic tumors. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2009 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

6 Fig 5 Effect of preoperative steroids (dashed line) compared with no steroids (solid line) is shown on the complete stable remission (CSR) prediction in thymoma patients. Steroid-censored patients are designated by vertical ticks and nonsteroid-censored patients by triangles.
