Abstract excerpt

The sudden infant death syndrome has multiple etiologies. Some congenital myasthenic syndromes can cause sudden infant death syndrome by apnea, but the frequency of this etiology is unknown. We report here a young patient with sudden respiratory crises culminating in apnea followed by recovery, against a background of no or variable myasthenic symptoms without dyspnea. One sib without myasthenic symptoms and one...
