Thymectomy, the surgical removal of the thymus gland, can enhance the success of skin grafts by modulating the immune response. By reducing the activity of certain T-cells that can lead to graft rejection, thymectomy helps create a more favorable environment for graft acceptance. This immune modulation may improve graft survival rates and promote better integration of the transplanted skin. Additionally, patients with conditions like myasthenia gravis, which often require thymectomy, may experience improved healing and reduced complications following skin graft procedures.
