The Thymus Gland

The critical role of the thymus in the immune system is becoming
increasingly well understood. Much of this knowledge is widely
dispersed throughout the literature. Although thymectomy is well
established as a surgical procedure, these advances need to be made
available to the surgeon. Furthermore, neurologists and physicians
require a better understanding of the surgical aspects of the thymus.
This book, written by selected experts, provides an up-to-date and
concise review of the thymus gland for both the surgeon and the
physician.
