About

Bernhard Moser is a leading thoracic surgeon whose research centers on the surgical management of myasthenia gravis (MG), particularly through thymectomy. His major contributions include advancing the perioperative care of MG patients undergoing robotic-assisted thymectomy, demonstrating that this minimally invasive approach can be performed safely with careful anesthetic and neuromuscular management. Moser’s work has been instrumental in refining patient selection and postoperative protocols, directly translating trial evidence into clinical practice. His most cited paper, "Thymectomy in myasthenia gravis" (2023, 12 citations), provides a critical review of the landmark randomized controlled trial proving thymectomy’s efficacy in acetylcholine receptor antibody-positive patients under 65. Additionally, his retrospective analysis of robotic-assisted thymectomy (2022, 7 citations) offers valuable real-world data on perioperative outcomes. While his citation counts reflect a focused, emerging body of work, Moser’s impact lies in bridging surgical innovation with evidence-based care for MG, a rare but debilitating neuromuscular disease. His research continues to shape best practices for thymectomy, making him a key figure in thoracic surgery and neuroimmunology.
