Supplementary file 1_Minimally invasive thymectomy: comparative analysis of short-term out

90 consecutive patients underwent minimally invasive thymectomy at a single tertiary center between 2016 and 2025. The study compares short-term outcomes, learning curves, and surgeon workload for video-assisted thoracoscopic, Da Vinci robotic, and Versius robotic procedures. The dataset was authored by Ilaria Righi and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Compare postoperative hospital stay based on surgical technique.
• Analyze operative time and complication rates across different platforms.
• Evaluate surgeon workload and learning curves using multidimensional questionnaire data.
• Benchmark conversion rates and chest tube duration for minimally invasive thymectomy.

Strengths

• Data covers 90 consecutive patients from a single center, providing a consistent cohort.
• Includes a validated multidimensional questionnaire for assessing surgeon workload.
• Compares three distinct surgical techniques over a defined period from 2016 to 2025.

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, requiring manual inspection after download.
• Data is from a single-center experience, which may limit generalizability.
