07/01/1988
- " Histology showed cholesterol crystals, Hassall's corpuscles, and giant cell reaction diagnosis of thymic cysts" 04/01/2005
- " Histologically, all the tumors basically showed similar histopathologic features, namely, those described in multilocular thymic cysts, ie, cystic structures lined by either squamous or low cuboidal epithelium, lymphoid hyperplasia, cholesterol cleft granulomas, and remnants of thymic tissue" 09/01/1995
- " Histologically, the lesions were characterized by cystic spaces lined by squamous or cuboidal epithelium showing severe chronic inflammatory changes with areas of cholesterol cleft granulomas, lymphoid follicular hyperplasia, and scattered foci of residual thymic parenchyma within the walls of the cysts, resulting in a picture indistinguishable from acquired multilocular thymic cysts" 08/01/1997
- " Histologically, the tumors showed prominent cystic changes reminiscent of those observed in acquired multilocular thymic cysts, i.e., the presence of cystic cavities lined by squamous epithelium with prominent inflammatory changes, lymphoid hyperplasia, cholesterol cleft granulomas, and remnants of thymic tissue in the walls of the cysts" 02/01/1982
- " A thymic cyst may contain cholesterol crystals in the luminal fluid, cholesterol clefts, granulomas and lymphocytic follicles as well as Hassall corpuscles in the wall"

| 3. | Sympathectomy (Sympathectomies)
04/01/1995
- " Procedures performed using this technique include thoracic sympathectomy, wedge or keel excision, blebectomy, lung apex stapling, parietal pleurectomy, and dissection of the mediastinal cyst" 02/01/2001
- " For therapeutic procedures, VATS has also been generally accepted for the treatment of such conditions as primary spontaneous pneumothorax, loculated effusions, thoracodorsal sympathectomy, and resection of simple mediastinal cysts" 02/01/2005
- " For therapeutic procedures, VATS has also been generally accepted as the treatment for spontaneous pneumothorax, thoracic sympathectomy, treatment of loculated effusions and resection of simple mediastinal cysts and benign tumors" 12/01/1994
- " Seventy operative thoracoscopies included pulmonary wedge resection, dorsal sympathectomy, management of empyema, pleural tumor, bullectomy, pericardial window, anterior release for kyphoscoliosis and resection of posterior mediastinal cyst" 02/01/2001
- " 380 cases of operative thoracoscopy included pulmonary wedge resection (for interstitial lung disease, benign and malignant pulmonary tumors and pulmonary metastases) bullectomy, management of empyema, pleural tumor biopsy, thoracic sympathectomy, pericardial window formation, thoracic spinal procedures and resection of posterior mediastinal cysts"
