dc.description.abstractIntroduction: Comparison of anterior mediastinal fat tissue densities between non-thymomatous myasthenia gravis patients and control group with non-contrast thorax computerized tomography.Methods: In this retrospective study, 65 patients with myasthenia gravis, who were examined by non-contrast thorax computerized tomography, were included. A control group consisting of 65 patients with the same sex and similar age distribution as the patient group was composed.Results: Anterior mediastinal fat mass Hounsfield unit average and standard deviation were -97±37.3 for 65 patients withmyasthenia gravis and were -121±37.3 for the control group, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference between Hounsfield unit values and standard deviations between myasthenia gravis patients and the control group (p=0.01).Discussion and Conclusion: In myasthenia gravis patients, anterior mediastinal fat tissue density was found to be higherthan the control group.en_US
