Autoimmune myasthenia gravis in two brothers.

The Journal of the Association of Physicians of India - 1 Mar 2004

Khadilkar S V, Shah S V

Abstract excerpt

Two brothers with immune-mediated myasthenia gravis are presented for the rarity. The clinical presentation was dissimilar. Both had acetylcholine receptor antibody positivity and one had thymoma. Both responded to immunomodulation and thymectomy. Relevant literature is reviewed.
